The decline of the Roman Empire was a period of enormous change in Western Europe. There are several reasons that contributed to it, and that in turn helped the rise of Christianity.

During the 3rd century AD, the Roman empire suffered a crisis due to foreign invasions and wars. The Sassanid Empire was a constant threat, while repeated civil wars and plagues weakened the empire from the inside. The Rhine frontier was contantly threatened by "barbarian" groups, which had grown in population and improved their technology. The size of the empire made it difficult to control and protect, and eventually the need for division became obvious. Each half of the empire was controlled by a different emperor, and mistrust and lack of communication caused other political conflicts. There was also a  rise in corruption and violence within the government, which created or exacerbated social divisions.

It is common for religions to grow in times of trial because they provide people with an explanation for chaos. It also gives the population hope for a better future or a fairer society. Finally, religions often increase social unity and community ties at a time when those might be endangered.

What was the reason that thousands of japanese americans voluntarily joined the us military during world war ii?
sveticcg [70]

Answer: To show loyalty to the U.S., gain upward mobility and/or Citizenship

Explanation: During World War II, many Americans of Japanese descent volunteered to join the U.S. military. This was in spite of growing sentiments against them as well as internment of Japanese Americans in camps.

It was a way to show loyalty to the U.S. For some it was the only way to gain citizenship, as well as move up the social ranks as ethnic minority groups had limited rights. They were first rejected, with the exception of bilingual Japanese Americans who helped with translation and interrogation.
