Western Christianity in Rome - Theology Academy | Church Fathers

In our video, we'll talk about the origins of Western Christianity and what Early Christians in Rome thought about the religion.

Excerpt:
In central Italy, one will find the city of Rome about twenty miles inland from the Tyrrhenian Sea, along the Tiber River. Rome itself has a deep and rich history and played an indispensable role in the formation of Western Christianity. In about 2000 BC, the first settlers of what would become Rome migrated southward across the Alps into northern Italy and then further south in the region of Rome. The Villanovans and then the Etruscans settled the area in 1000 and 800 BC respectively, lending their religious, political, and artistic influences to central Italy. Roman poets and historians trace the city’s official history to 753 BC, when Romulus and Remus were said to have founded it. From that time forward, there were various forms of government including a republic, oligarchy, monarchy, and eventually an empire as Roman armies conquered much of the Mediterranean world. The Western Roman Empire lasted until AD 476 and the Eastern Roman (or Byzantine) Empire lasted another millennium until 1453.
