Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A multi sided civil war ensued between Constantine and the several other factions vying for the throne. Constantine defeated his main rival for the Western emperor ship in 312 and defeated the Eastern emperor in 324 after years of strained relations, thus making Constantine sole ruler of the Roman Empire.
