roman empire
Please make certain that you have read the “Instructions for Writing the Essays” found on the Content page BEFORE writing this essay.

The Roman Empire experienced a period of greatness before it eventually declined and fell in 476 A.D. Discuss the reasons for the fall. How might these reasons compare to what is happening today in the United States? (See discussion below on how to handle the answer to this statement)

This essay will be used to examine critical thinking skills. As such, evidence must be used to develop a thesis statement and the student must develop their own defensible position on the topic.

Please Remember: The entire essay should be entirely in your own words, and no outside sources are allowed!
