Question

What factors caused the decline of the Roman Empire?

Answer 1

Answer:

2. financial problems, political corruption, and repeated invasions

Explanation:

The Romans were best known for their repeated conquests to rule over many states however a lot of times because of this and the conquests failing they had nothing to pay the armies, so they practically went bankrupt.

Political corruption was another thing that caused the downfall of the Roman empire, the politics of the Roman empire were mostly based upon how much a person could get out of another man and to be honest there was a reason why the romans were so willing to do so.

you see the Romans were actually the outcasts of the Greek empire and after a while the outcasts formed together to make a dream: the Roman Empire. However, none of them had wives so they went to a neighboring kingdom and stole all their daughters and wives after a big feast. The women never returned to their original husbands. Then there was Romulus and Aeneas they fought over who was to lead these outcasts and a result was the death of Aeneas, so then the word I was invented into their vocabulary making it stand above the needs of family allowing greed to fill their hearts

They were constantly being invaded because their armies were always off conquering other kingdoms leaving theirs unprotected.
