The fact that a Roman emperor was not born in Rome, and spent most of his life outside of Rome, tells us that Rome's importance was on a decline.

Explanation:

Diocletian was a Roman emperor in the third century. This was a period where the Roman Empire was spread out on three continents. Because of the sheer size of the empire, it was not centralized as it was i the past, but instead it was decentralized. The decentralization can best be seen that there were two centers of power, Rome and Constantinople, but also there were smaller divisions in both the eastern and western part of the empire.

  • Rome itself was on a decline, gradually losing its importance and supreme power.
  • Constantinople on the other hand, was the rising center of power, so the power was switching from the west to the east.
  • Rome had very big problems with internal affairs, disloyalty, corruption, greed for power, which eventually led to its downfall.
  • Constantinople was becoming more powerful in meantime, becoming the most powerful city of the new Byzantine Empire, lasting for around a century more than Rome.
