Constantine did not declare Christianity as the official religion. He simply legalized the practice of Christianity.

Right. Constantine legalized Christianity, and declared it the official religion of his regime.

.
In year 325 AD, Constantine the Great called the Council of Nicaea. He ordered the first fifty copies of cordices to be undertaken by Bishop Eusebius from the works of a theologian named Origen before circa 231 AD, from the compilations of available records of the known Political Sanhedrin written by Josephus and convened by Romans in 57 B.C.E. (Taken from the Greek word for council (synedrion), the term was apparently applied to various bodies but became especially the designation for the supreme Jewish legislative and judicial court) Indeed the main theme was an excerpt from the surviving records of the Great Political Sanhedrin as the old Roman Constitution for Palestine during the reigned of Hasmonean dynasty and it should be understand that some thoughts and events were reconciliation of Origen and the rational knowledge of Eusebius suitable for that respective period.
.
Those were the period where Mithraism was integrated into Christianity with the retention of the “Feast of Sol Invictus” into the birth of Jesus of Nazareth. Mithraism was the cult being practiced by Constantine prior to the commissioning of Christianity by the Council of Nicaea where virgin birth and trinity was the main theme of traditional belief.
