There's this series of books, right? It's six volumes, and it's called "the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire." So go read it, and then you'll know!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jonesy90000 Invested a large amount of resources in invading Britain but lost them to the pictish forces in Scotland. This failed attempt marked the beginning of stagnation for the Romans in terms of land exspansion, like wise it also signaled economic termal and political strife as everything in Rome was based around a constant supply of I'll gotten gains from their exspansions. Now with Rome unstable, a large portion of the barbarians that sorounded Rome started to invade. Even worse the Romans resorted to hiring the Francs (may be spelt wrong) and the Francs took advantage of this, grabbing land of there own to form what is now France. You see the fall of Rome wad not just one event, it was the result of a series of events. But I guess you could sumarise as the Roman war machine running out of steam.[/quote] You described the fall of Western Rome. The ERE stayed strong. He asked for the fall of Rome, not the WRE.

Rome wasn't built in a day, therefor Emp' fired the contractors building Rome who then retaliated by filling the plumbing with cement. And thus Rome fell.
