Detailed explanation-1: -In the third century, the Roman Empire had grown too large and impossible to administer. To solve this problem, Diocletian divided the Roman Empire into four distinct territories, each to be governed by a different ruler. This brought to an end the Crisis of the Third Century and stabilized the Roman Empire.
Detailed explanation-2: -In short, the empire’s vast size played a role-its colossal borders made it challenging to govern-but other factors, such as political and social instability, revolts, invasions and incursions into the empire, also led to the split.
Detailed explanation-3: -Emperor Diocletian divided the empire because it was too big for one person to rule. Emperor Constantine reunited the two halves shortly after he took power.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Great Schism of 1054 between the churches of Rome and Constantinople further diminished any authority the emperor in Constantinople could hope to exert in the west.
