Abstract
- The Battle of Milvian Bridge occurred in late October 312 CE near the Milvian Bridge in Italy. It was a significant battle between rival Roman emperors Maxentius and Constantine, who were competing for control of the western Roman Empire. The outcome of the battle favored Constantine, leading to his rise to power as the sole emperor. The exact location of the battle and the role of the bridge in the conflict are still debated among historians. Maxentius' death during the battle, caused by the collapse of the bridge, resulted in the defeat of his army by Constantine's forces. [Extracted from the article]
