The_Fall_Of_Rome

The Fall Of Rome The fall of Rome was due to many different factors. These factors included an economic crisis, barbarians, the weak military, lost battles, and political decay. The reason for the economic crisis was that the income was gone. The military couldn’t protect the borders so barbarians or raiders started going in Rome and stealing things on land and in the sea. The Romans continued to import luxury items such as silk, and pearls. However they didn’t consider the fact that their exports weren’t enough to cover the cost of these things. Their soil was too well-worn to produce enough food for everyone so another problem that appeared was inflation. Because of the inflation, the Romans thought that making more money would help them overcome this problem, but they used less silver, which lowered the value of the money. empire, roman, emperor, constantine, diocletian, rome, romans, until, two, started, inflation, because, barbarians, army, after, worship, vandals, ruled, provinces, people, one, money, military, less, germanic, enough, died, christianity, ad, years, year, western, west, visigoths, traditional
