How did economic and social reforms by Diocletian and Constantine affect the Roman Empire?

They changed the empire into a new state; the Late Roman Empire. This included a new governmental structure, a rigid economic and social system, and Christianity as the new state religion. Diocletian, believing that the empire had grown too large for a single ruler, he divided it into four units, prefectures, then the entire empire was split into two parts (east and west) that were each ruled by two rulers. Constantine built the new capital in the east, Constantinople. Both of their policies enlarged the civil service and the army (about 500,000 men, including german units). To fight inflation, diocletian issued a price edict that set wage price controls for the empire, which failed to work. so to ensure the tax base and to keep the empire going despite the labor shortage, they issued edicts of forcing workers to stay in their occupations. In conclusion, the economic and social policies of Diocletian and Constantine were based on control and coercion, and although temporarily successful, in the long run they stifled the very vitality the late empire needed to revive it's sagging fortunes.
