A cause of the fall of the Roman Empire could have been the East Rome and West Rome were governed separately and had different ideals. The east was called Byzantine Empire and the west remained central Italy. They eventually both wanted more power and land, so they split from each other becoming their own empires.
Another cause of the fall of the Roman Empire could have been because of the Migration Period, also known as The Barbarian Invasions. The was an intense human migration that took place between 400 A.D. and 800 A.D. Many Germanic tribes were migrating into Rome for new land and opportunities. This simply applied to much stress on the Romans and the whole government collapsed.
Another theory for the cause of the falling of Rome is that they simply became to large to sustain all of the people and keep them under control. With the Migration of all the barbarians Rome lost control of their land and people and split into more than one country. It is said that the Romans were doomed to fail from the start because of the rapid and drastic growth rate.
