What Caused the Fall of the Roman Empire?

Imagine a big, strong castle that's been around for centuries. It was built with the best bricks and magic spells, but over time, it started to crack because no one was taking care of it anymore. Roman Empire was like that castle. At first, it had lots of friends helping protect it, but eventually, it got too big and tired, and things just fell apart.

Examples

  1. A child gets a bag of candies every day, but one day they get fewer and smaller pieces, and it feels unfair.
  2. A big pizza is shared among five friends at first, but when more people join the party, each person only gets a tiny slice.
  3. The castle wall is made with strong bricks, but over time, some parts are replaced with weaker ones.
