endless war and debt (from wars) did cause the decline though. in the end they couldn't afford it anymore, the men or the money and starting paying barbarians to wage war for them, and some of those barbarians they trained as generals turned on them.

The average lifespan of an empire is 250 years. The life cycle of an empire is broken down into six ages. They are:

1. The Age of Pioneers
2. The Age of Conquest
3. The Age of Commerce
4. The Age of Affluence
5. The Age of Intellectualism
6. The Age of Decadence

>Alaric went easy on Rome when he sacked it.
Alaric didn't go easy on anyone. Pretty much destroyed Greece.

>Rufinus' death and Stilicho's departure gave free rein to Alaric's movements; he ravaged Attica but spared Athens, which capitulated at once to the conqueror. In 396, he wiped out the last remnants of the Mysteries at Eleusis in Attica, ending a tradition of esoteric religious ceremonies that had lasted since the Bronze Age. Then he penetrated into the Peloponnesus and captured its most famous cities—Corinth, Argos, and Sparta—selling many of their inhabitants into slavery.

I've had an even worst moment once when we visited the Acropolis. I overheard a Greek guide (woman) telling some Chinese tourists about the temple of Parthenon.

And I'm sitting there like what the fug. I was almost 100% sure the Spartans won the war and that Pericles had already died by then.

The energy has run out of both Protestantism and Catholicism. The Pope adopts more secular tenets every day and atheism is stronger than Protestantism. Islam is still energized and the people that follow it very focused.

Not necessarily. They can be a lot more traumatic and sudden. The average Roman wouldn't have noticed the collapse of their civilisation until the Gothic War in the 6th century when Italy's population collapsed because shit was so fucked up.

>everybit of everything matters

It's true. But /pol/ friendly ideas are usually played up far too much while most important reasons like the civil wars of 400-430 destroying the Roman army are either underplayed or unknown.

He's not full of shit, you are simply ignorant. Alaric went very easy on Rome, the wrath of the Visigoths tempered by their new embrace of Christianity.

That's right, he simply took tribute. He could've enslaved all the women of Rome and put the fighting age men to the sword, as was common at the time. He could've taken up residence in one of Rome's fabulous villas and ruled as some vulgar barbarian king. He could've gutted Rome's stores or burned the city or done any number of ghastly things which were often done 1500 years ago, but he did not.

>It fell to pretty much external force

That's actually wrong. The number of times the external barbarians beat them in pitched battles can be counted on one hand.

>much more so corruption and inefficiency (unending civil wars, bankruptcy, inability to raise legions)

This is right.

>Rome did not fall from the foderati tribes

While your point here is kind of right, as the foederati were effective soldiers and ironically just as loyal as the average Roman of the day, the foederati did massively contribute to the fall as the state allowed them to settle on productive wealthy land, tax free, which reduced their own coffers.

A good example of what happened to the empire as a whole was what happened to Britannia.

>central government preoccupied with its own shit
>local defences fall to foederati who are given land on which to base themselves and defend the locals
>successfully defend the place from other barbarians
>payments becoming less certain
>make more and more demands
>entire thing collapses
>in the power vacuum end up supplanting the locals in terms of wealth and power

No. Citizenship meant fuck all by the 2nd century AD anyway.

Real question is why do they always portray Romans with British accents? Why not Italian accents?

Notice they slip in a chunk of kike propaganda?
Where one of the senators states that the only people that use the words "equality, freedom, freedom or peace" are "Greeks, JEWS, and slaves."

In reality, the Jews were the most prolific slave dealers of the time, and Roman historians even mention that fact. And JEWS were the main slave-dealers in the trans-Atlantic slave trade to the U.S., and even Jewish historians not that fact, so involved were they that the slave markets in the U.S. were closed on Jewish holy days for lack of dealers selling them.

Typical kike Hollywood, threading in outright lies within a narrative that's supposed to be entertainment.

You're implying that what was proposed to the senate is what lead to demise of the empire, which is a gross overstatement. And the movie itself doesn't show this in a negative light. Have you watched it actually?

Yes, and that also means we're on the verge of pioneers (space exploration) and most of us should live to see it.

One thing that's important to keep in mind is that this life cycle, while it seems to hold true through history - DOES NOT mean the nation dies. Rome lasted far more than 250 years, but rome still went through several of these cycles. Each time Rome came through, but was changed.

We're going to see how things go with Trump. I think Trump represents the end of the Age of Decadence (1960's - 2017). The average time between ages, if they're evenly distributed, should be ~40 years, and we're more like 60 years into decadence. If Trump can beat these snakes in the US government and actually drain the swamp, some really good things are going to happen with America.

Because it is a western movie for English-speaking countries, where the "highborn" English accent is used to represent civilization and nobility.
Rome was the apex of civilization and nobility for its time.

Why assume the cycle started at in dependence? If thats the case most of the Euros fell into decadence somewhere towards the end of the middle ages.

Hmm...maybe they did.

Uhhh

If you knew fucking anything about roman history you'd know that isn't even remotely the case.

Romans barged in, killed the local mafia I mean government, and then installed LOCAL government run by the people there, built roads, aqueducts, and coliseums, then charged taxes and let them basically run themselves so long as they stayed loyal to rome.

In this process they usually built a roman colony to function as a model of what being Roman was about, and offered roman citizenship to those who'd join the auxiliaries but they largely DID NOT move Romans in to take over these places.

And that's the beauty of the roman system. They peacefully colonized all the city-states around them in a painless way, over the course of decades. Taught them how to be Roman, and they integrated these people into Rome slowly; rarely granting citizenship unless you did some duty for rome yourself.
