I'm just quoting from a website
"the factors leading to the downfall of empires of Ghana, Mali, and Songhai
Climate change and struggles with Berber groups in the Sahara led to the downfall of the Ghanaian Kingdom
Later kings followed the patrilineal tradition, where the eldest son succeeds the father. Since there seems to have been no strict tradition, there were many fights over succession. This led to civil wars and was a large part of the reason why the Mali Empire declined.
Like the Mali Empire, the Songhai Empire also suffered from many battles over succession. In Songhai, the brothers of the king often tried to depose him; in turn, some kings tried to protect themselves by killing all their brothers. The last great battle for succession occurred when a great army general challenged a new king. Many men were killed in the battle for control of the country and the Songhai army was weakened. When troops from Morocco invaded to seize control of and revive the trans-Saharan trade in gold, the Songhai Empire could not win and was conquered, making this the last of the great West African empires."
I believe there are lots of reasons why the Roman Empire declined but the 3 most important ones are, Government corruption and political instability, Invasions by Barbarian tribes, and The rise of the Eastern Empire, but the one I think is the most important is the first one reason.

Four ways to reduce political polarization are reforming the election process, assuring proportionality, increasing turnout and reforming the legislative process.
Reforming the election process:
One can reform the election process by abolishing primary elections and allowing the state and local party organizations to choose nominees. Adopting instant run-off elections can also help.
Assuring proportionality:
If the party which receives the most votes does not win the most seats, reserving some seats to such a party can help assure proportionality.
Increasing turnout:
A low turnout can be dealt with by making voting mandatory, creating incentives to lure more voters and by stopping voter suppression.
Reforming the legislative process:
This can be achieved by adopting a parliamentary system and abolishing the filibuster. Reducing transparency and allowing more latitude for negotiation and compromise can also help.
