What occurred as a result of the constantine the great founding of new rome

The empire became divided between its western and eastern portions. The Eastern Empire (referred to later as the Byzantine Empire) lasted longer politically.  However, Constantine's shift of the capital away from Rome also facilitated the rise of greater power for the pope in Rome as the head of religion and culture in the West.

A note on the religious developments:  Constantine's own conversion to Christianity, and his subsequent legalization of the Christian religion, legitimized the Christian faith as the accepted religious path, favored in the empire.  Constantine sought to unify the empire under Christian faith agreement, calling for the Council of Nicea to meet near Constantinople in 325 AD (which produced the Nicene Creed).  Also, Constantine's move of the capital to "New Rome" (Constantinople) left the Bishop of Rome as the strongest leadership figure in Rome itself, which enabled the development of the power of the papacy.
