Fall of The Roman Empire There are several different reasons to explain the fall of the Roman Empire. The first reason being the wide spread of Christianity; a faith that promoted the idea of a society being run by spiritual leaders as opposed to military leaders, which was the original infrastructure of the Roman Empire. The second reason for the fall of Rome was the loss of one tenth of the population due to lead poisoning, and the plague. And the third reason being the economic collapse Rome suffered. The Christian faith, once introduced, became very appealing to the people of the Roman Empire. The promise of salvation was introduced to the public through Christianity. This was attracting to the people at the time because they were living difficult lives and carrying on in a very unjust manner. Christianity gave them faith and something to work forward to. Christianity also provided the people with a meaning towards life, and showed them that there was more to value other than material objects.
