After 400 CE Western Roman Civilization experienced many diminishing situations within their territory. Early government faced government corruption and a lack of stability involving their political system. A great deal of citizens withdrew their selves from its military and in return caused a fragile defense, revealing a less effective militant control. The increasing force from barbarians played a huge role in Western Roman decline and contributed to irreversible territorial loss. The decline also included a lack of Christianity and many traditional values which eroded the Roman value system. These are just a few examples of Western Roman’s short comings before any acts of resistance.
