there it is

(((inflation)))

I'll go with 111, user

How do I inflate gold, do I blow in it?

I don't see birth control. nobody blamed birth control for the fall of the one true empire? they drove a particular plant with contraceptive effects into extinction.

>How do I inflate gold, do I blow in it?
I you have a gold backed currency, you get hyperinflation as soon as you run out of gold. That's why fiat currency is inherently superior.

That's not how the Romans inflated gold, though. They just changed the composition of their gold coins by adding more of other metals.

All of the above

Even the contradictory ones like Christianity and Polytheism? Or Totalitarianism and Excessive freedom?

>115. Lack of orderly imperial succession
this one is probably closest to truth.
200 years of constant civil wars destroyed roman empire. Every general wanted to be an emperor.

>a small percentage of homos buttfucking.
does anyone actually believe this? i mean, i believe white genocide is real and there are only two genders but i don't believe this.

i always thought it was because the burdens of running a vast and far-flung empire were too much strain for the romans' systems of bureaucracy

Thats the point. Nobody knows the reason Rome fell. But everyone has a fucking opinion.

This is also true of most complex systems.

>How do I inflate gold, do I blow in it?

No, you add less precious metals in the coinage process such as copper and lead, pretending they are gold in your dealings with foreign entities. Any other retarded questions?

Stop trying to pretend like your faggotry isn't the downfall of civilization. Homos buttfucking and inflation happen to go hand in hand. Inflation happens when the price of goods skyrockets because supply can't keep pace with demand, and when men are satisfied fucking each other in the ass instead of working to support a family, then guess what, supply doesn't keep pace with demand.
After America's gay liberation, it would already have suffered ridiculously high inflation than it already has, except your leaders were wise enough to import millions of non-faggots to keep producing all the shit you need to live out your decadent lifestyles.

As soon as that immigration stops though you better get your ass to work or get ready for $1000 bread.

requesting sauce on homos buttfucking destroying rome.

>Inertia
Kek every time.

Yeah, but what is the real reason?

Rome? More like Roam as in, I'm roaming away from this shithole amirite?

The sum of all those factors is the reason. States are like houses, a few small cracks aren't a big deal, but if they aren't attended to and more cracks start showing, it will crumble.

The capital class got sick of managing an empire so they took some slaves and sailed to the Americas and set up a nice little realm that lasted a few hundred years before they mixed with or were wiped out by the natives. That or they had space ships and travelled the stars, taking all their advanced technology with them, waiting for us to catch back up.

>you get hyperinflation as soon as you run out of gold
Haha, what.

>Inflation happens when the price of goods skyrockets because supply can't keep pace with demand
No.

>tfw when both capitalism an communism killed Rome

They used lead in their cooking pots, high levels of lead lead to infertility and impotence. Or it's because they forsaked the gods, hard to say.

You are exactly wrong. Gold backed currency does not get hyperinflation. That is a unique attribute of fiat currencies.

Roman empire fell because they hated refugees...

Rome never fell and just morphed into what is known today as the "West".

Italian still isn't white, pasta nigger.

The Jews.
