Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Christians were blamed for the desperate situation because they denied the gods who were thought to protect Rome, thereby bringing down their wrath. To regain divine protection, the emperors introduced the systematic persecution of Christians throughout the empire.
Detailed explanation-2: -Many Romans feared the spread of Christianity, because Christian ideas did not agree with the old Roman ways. The Roman Emperor Nero began one of the first persecutions of early Christians in AD 64. It was also in the year AD 64 that the Great Fire of Rome burned much of the city.
