Task #2 Turn to the section of the review book referencing the fall of the Roman Empire Complete the section of the review sheet explaining the causes of the fall of the Roman Empire

Temporary Help Diocletian in A.D. 284 became a strong leader He doubled the Roman armies and hired German mercenaries Persecuted Christians He divided the Roman empire into 2 sides – East: Greek speaking – West: Latin speaking He took over the East, but Civil war broke out after his death

Constantine Took over the West part of the empire in A.D. 312 Moved the capital to a strategic location in Greece in the East in Byzantium and renamed it Constantinople He accepted Christianity

The West Falls The west faced worse problems than the east that was far from invaders From A.D. 376 to 476, huge numbers of Germanic tribes poured into Rome to get away from the fierce Huns Attila the Hun was a powerful chieftain who swept through the west

The West Falls Negotiated with Pope Leo I and withdrew He died in 453 and was no longer a threat Germanic tribes continued to invade and finally the west was no longer Rome But the Eastern Roman empire will continue as the Byzantine Empire that will preserve Greek and Roman heritage.
