Answer:

  • Christianity was the official religion in the Roman Empire, but the Byzantines rejected it.

Explanation:

In the Roman Empire, until the rule of Constantine I, the principle religion was polytheistic where they venerated the different renamed Greek gods. Emperor Constantine I's rule was when Christianity turned into the main religion of the empire. The Byzantine Empire was a Christian one from the beginning. The Roman Empire, before its division, secured a bigger geographical territory that the Byzantine Empire ever did.

The correct answer is C) Latin was the official language of the Roman Empire, but many spoke Greek in the Byzantine Empire.

The statement that describes a difference between the Roman Empire and the Byzantine Empire is "Latin was the official language of the Roman Empire, but many spoke Greek in the Byzantine Empire."

When the Western Roman Empire ended, the Byzantine Empire or East part of the Roman Empire maintained part of the dominion. The capital of the empire changed from Rome to Constantinople, maintained Christianity as the official religion of the Empire but the language changed from Latin to Greek.
