Detailed explanation-1: -Edict of Milan, proclamation that permanently established religious toleration for Christianity within the Roman Empire. It was the outcome of a political agreement concluded in Mediolanum (modern Milan) between the Roman emperors Constantine I and Licinius in February 313.
Detailed explanation-2: -After this vision, Constantine legalized Christianity and promoted religious tolerance in 313 CE through the Edict of Milan.
Detailed explanation-3: -It is possible (but not certain) that Constantine’s mother, Helena, exposed him to Christianity. In any case, he only declared himself a Christian after issuing the Edict of Milan. Writing to Christians, Constantine made clear that he believed that he owed his successes to the protection of the High God alone.
