The Basilica at Trier (formerly known as the Audience Hall of Constantius Chlorus) reflects the period of the Tetrarchy, which was a system of government implemented by Diocletian in the late 3rd century AD. This period saw the division of the Roman Empire into four administrative regions, each ruled by a separate emperor, and the basilica reflects the grandeur and scale of this new system of government.
