Roman Resources and the Fall of the Western Empire

The purpose of this treatise is to investigate the natural resources of the Roman Empire to determine as far as possible their influence on the Fall of the Empire in 476 A.D. Since the greatness of an Empire rests upon men, money, and natural resources, most attention will be given to these important factors. When the fall of the Empire occurred it was not because the invading-peoples had become stronger but because the Empire had become weaker. While we trace the growth of Rome territorially we marvel at the power she was at the same time assuming and the world influence she was attaining.
