However, the
Emperor Constantius II ordered the merger of rival churches in 347. This measure led to an outburst of violence against the imperial order in Numidia. In 361 or 362, the Emperor Julian decided to grant an edict of tolerance to all Christian sects banned by Constance, which gave him new momentum to Donatism. His successor, Theodosius I, also failed to solve the Donatist schism.

50:. The location of the former diocese is for the moment unknown. Under Roman hegemony, the bishop belonged to the province of Byzacène. This province was located in North Africa. The exact location of Gaguari can not be determined for the current state of research. However, everything leads us to believe that the bishopric site localizes to the current Sahel of Tunisia.

After 25 years of existence, the
Donatist Church had its own network of bishops, organized its own councils, gathered its own renamed faithful since the sacraments of the other bishops were not valid from the Donatist point of view. The "Counter-Church" then had 270 bishops and subsisted by itself.
153:
Various parameters in the ancient world may explain the disappearance of a bishop (or traces of this diocese) to
Gaguari. First, there were a large number of bishoprics in ancient North Africa, especially during the Donatist schism. The organization of the African provinces left a certain autonomy

Second, from 645, the councils that previously met all the bishops of North Africa will now meet more than the provincial level. Details of these meetings are today largely unknown, only synodal letters were retained. Third, the seats of bishops (and therefore

to the cities. Subsequently, these cities will require more religious freedoms: they wanted to have their own bishop. This explains the large number of bishops at the time, . Unfortunately, only half of them have been identified as
Gaguari.
272:(1953) : Born December 2, 1953 in Cuba, he was ordained priest in 1980 in the Archdiocese of Newark to the United States. He became auxiliary bishop of Newark in 2008 as well as titular bishop of Gaguari. Currently he is still in office.
142:, brought together bishops from both sides. It is at this point that Rogatus, Bishop of Gaguari, renounced Donatism for Catholicism. The schism ended gradually from 413 under the action of Augustine and the repression of Honorius.

Several reasons are attributed to the rise of
Donatism, political, religious and social. However, it would appear to be a clash of strong personalities that brought rapid development of schism.
