Answer:

There were a lot of reasons which caused the fall of the Roman empire. The major problems were corruption and bribe at the state level, weaken army, political instability, Christianity the religion.

Explanation:

Corruption:

Because of corruption and political instability, Roman's economy was weakening. They had to buy expensive items from the East as they had well trade with them, but now the economy had fallen and they had nothing to exchange with them, administration started making new silver coins which led to inflation, prices rose and Germanic tribes disordered the flow of trade, especially in West The western half of the empire had a large trade deficit with the eastern half. The west purchased luxury goods from the east but had nothing to offer in exchange. To make up for the lack of money, the government began producing more coins with less silver content. This led to inflation. Finally, piracy and attacks from Germanic tribes disrupted the flow of trade, especially in the west.

Political Instability:

The civil war accelerated the empire into anarchy, and more than 20 men considered the dominion to the extent of only 75 years, normally after the killing of their ancestors. The Praetorian Guard, the emperor's personal guard slaughtered and established new monarchs at wish. The political corruption also spread to the Roman Senate, which worsened to anger the surpluses of the rulers due to its own unlimited rottenness and inability. In this situation, Romans lost their trust in their emperors.

Christianity:

Christianity replaced the polytheistic Roman faith, which saw the emperor as owning a sacred rank and diverted focus from the glory of State and above the only goddess.

Weaken Army:

Roman Empire had stretched from the Atlantic Ocean to the Euphrates River located in the Middle East. With such a large administrative land, the emperors faced a lot of administrative hurdles and logistic issues. Although they had a very strong and excellent road, they had failed to have effective communication with each other. They tried to hire more troops in their army to face the local rebels and outside attacks. But due to a lack of money, they were unable to hire professionals. In the second century emperor, Hadrian was compelled to the built wall in Britain to keep the enemy at bay.

bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

The Silk Road was an example of great creativity, ingenuity and cultural spread due to the immense amount of trade and people to people contact that took place through that route.

Explanation:

The Silk road was an ancient trading route that connected the China with Central Asia, modern-day Pakistan, all the way to the Middle east, Mediterranean and parts of Europe.

The Silk route connected different cultures, languages, trades and ideas and gave rise to technology transfer, knowledge sharing and deeply connected the East with the West.

At the time, Europe was very backward while the Middle East and China were the most developed regions in the world.

The cultural spread and creativity that spread through this network are still evident in other parts of the world.
