Originating around AD 300, Arianism was the theological view that Jesus was divine, but created and lesser than God the Father. It was condemned as incorrect by the Council of Nicaea in 325 which gave its seal of authority to the trinitarian view. While Arianism continued to be an issue in the Roman Empire to some degree, the biggest influece and conflict due to Arianism was from the barbarian tribes who had been Christianized, but mostly with Arianism tendencies. It would take centuries, and well beyond the fall of the Roman Empire, before the trinitarian view prevailed in those regions.
