 Ultima Hesperia


   We are sincerely  pleased  you have come to visit our Site and we extend
to you our warmest greeting in the highest  tradition of  BYZANTIUM.
 Our Principal goal is to impart to you  heretofore little known f acts
about BYZANTIUM—e nhanced  foundation of Western Civilization
through the meaningful contribution of  Constantine the Great.
We will avoid knowingly withholding the truth as an aim to  social
disorientation.  Practice of historical deception must cease.
We hope that you will enjoy our contribution to the fullest.  Welcome.

Constantine the Great began his eventful climb in York, England and
reached the apex of his achievement in Constantinople, the City that he
founded and named after himself (Constantine+Polis [city]=Constantinople).

By means of these pages, our readers travel through time, touching upon
the early periods, including that of Constantine, of historical Constantinople,
and of Hagia Sophia—the nexus of the Christian world—to arrive at places
and events of our present day.

Our readers reach the outermost limit to which both Eastern and Western
Christian groups expanded, bringing forth the flower of Western Civilization.
That limit is the Western Hemisphere as a whole, and in particular the coast
of California near  San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge where the two
groups converged  as they approached from the North and from the South.

Freedom of religion provided the means for Constantine to establish
Christianity in the Empire.

The  Edict  of   Milan in  313  A.D. allowed  tolerance  and  freedom of  religion  throughout.
Reliable  sources in  historical literature  attest  to this  fact.   Although   far  more  a  soldier
than a    book  devotee,  Constantine   displayed  considerable  academic   aptitude  to  deal
 with  issues in  the  letters and  in art.  The book, Seven  Gates to Freedom,  and   its  appended
art—like  with  other  contemporary  religious  art  and   publications and those of  Western
history since Constantine's time—owe their presence to tolerance and  freedom of  religion
he set forth.
