8. </span>Weakening of the Roman legions: <span>Rome’s military was the envy of the ancient world. But during the decline, the makeup of the once mighty legions began to change.

In fact, many of the barbarians who sacked the city of Rome and brought down the Western Empire had earned their military stripes while serving in the Roman legions.
