Throughout history, reformers have been confronted with diverse problems and have gone about resolving them in radically different ways. Two notable reformers are Diocletian and St. Paul. The Emperor Diocletian transformed the declining Roman by creating policies and laws that stripped a person of individual freedom. St. Paul, who went about reform in a different way, changed the Christian community through love for one another and having faith in God.
At the beginning of the forth century, Diocletian (284-305) became emperor and could be considered a reformer of the nearly collapsed Roman Empire. He restored order and solidity, basing his policies on oppression and the loss of personal freedom. The restoration of the empire included political, military, economic, social and religious changes.

His own court he established in Nicomedia, where he could keep a close watch on threatening monarchs and tribes along the eastern borders. There were two Augusti, each with a slightly subordinate Caesar, with Diocletian himself as the senior Augustus. Once an Augustus stepped down, his Caesar would take his place.

Diocletian, who occupied the throne for 20 years, would result in the change from chaos to stability for the empire.
Once the political system had been set in place, Diocletian began to structure military, economic, social, and religious reform.
