: Could someone please send me reasons the roman empire had a downfall and how they apply to the United States today.

The answer is that the Roman Empire actual existed into the 14century, but only in the east. The western half fell because of German tribes migration and wars between the western roman emperor and the german tribes. Also week goverment was a facter.
