By the early 4th century a group in North Africa, later called Donatists, who believed in a very rigid interpretation of Christianity that excluded many who had abandoned the faith during the Diocletian persecutions, created a crisis in the western Empire.[20] A Church synod, or council, was called in Rome in 313 followed by another in Arles in 314.	./cache/en-wikipedia-org-2086.html	./txt/en-wikipedia-org-2086.txt
