395 was the year Theodosius I died. He had appointed his two sons as co-emperors. Arcadius was given the east and Honorius was given the west. That is all and it was not in itself greatly eventful. It was nothing new as the empire had had co-emperors with one in the east and one in the west many times previously.

395 is considered an important date by historians because they see this as a point at which the eastern and western parts of the empire split. This was not due to an imperial decision to do this, but to circumstances.

The empire split because of two main factors. One is that the two co-emperors were young and inexperienced and powerful politicians in the east and the west took advantage of this to conspire against each other. The other, and most crucial, factor was that the Germanic invasions of the western part of the empire begun 11 years later. The western part of the empire started to crumble under the weight of these invasions and eventually fell. The eastern part of the empire was not affected by these invasions and remained powerful.

Theodosius I did not know that this was going to happen.

395 AD was the year when Theodosius I, the last sole emperor, died. Theodosius had designated his sons as co-emperors and gave the western part the Roman Empire to Honorius, and the eastern part to Arcadius. This in itself was nothing new. There had been many periods with co-emperors.

Historians consider the eastern and western parts of the Roman Empire to have become split after the death of Theodosius I. The split was due to circumstances, not to an imperial decision. The empire became split for two reasons. One was that the co-emperors were young and inexperienced and powerful politicians in the east and the west took advantage of this to conspire against each other. There was also a plot in the west to seize some of the land of the east. The other reason is that the Germanic invasions of the western part of the empire begun soon afterwards, in 406. These invasions were the beginning of the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire.

Theodosius the Great died in 395. He had designated his two sons as co-emperors. Honorius took charge of the western part of the Roman Empire and Arcadius took charge of the eastern part.

Many historians consider 395 the year when the eastern part of the Roman Empire and the western part became separated. This was not due to an imperial decision to do so, but by events. There had been many co-emperorships with one man in charge of the east and one in charge of the west before. It was caused by two factors. One was that Arcadius and Honorius were young and incompetent and allowed intrigue to occur at their courts in Ravenna and Constantinople respectively and powerful people at these two courts to conspire against each other's courts. The other was that the western part of the Roman Empire soon begun to crumble under the weight of the invasions by the Germanic peoples.

How did the gladiator games come to an end in Roman times?

The Gladiator games of ancient Rome began their decline through the influence of Roman Emperor Constantine I. Constantine was the first Roman Emperor to freely allow Christianity. Following his apparent conversion (and it is debatable whether his conversion was genuine or politically motivated), he removed penalties for professing Christianity, under which many were martyred in previous persecutions of Christians, such as in the gladiatorial arena. In AD 325, Constantine I issued an edict which stated:"in times in which peace and peace relating to domestic affairs prevail, bloody demonstrations displease us. Therefore we order that there may be no more gladiator combats. Those, who were condemned to become gladiators for their crimes, are to work from now on in the mines. Thus they pay for their crimes, without having to pour their blood." While ladiatorial games were actually revived some three years later, their popularity continued to decline. Emperor Theodosius declared Christianity the official religion of the Roman Empire in AD 393, and while gladiator shows continued, their programmes were very limited due to financial reasons and the audience dwindled as many converted to Christianity. It was Honorius, Theodosius' son, who finally decreed the end of gladiatorial contests in 399 AD. The last known gladiator competition in the city of Rome occurred on January 1, 404 AD.
