Imagine a big kingdom that everyone thinks is unstoppable, but one day, it just falls apart. That’s what happened to many ancient civilizations. Some ran out of food because the soil got too tired from farming, or people started fighting each other more than they used to. Other times, nature played a part, like when volcanoes erupted and covered everything in ash.
Examples
- A powerful emperor was replaced by a weak leader who couldn’t control his enemies.
- A volcano erupted and made the sky dark for months, causing crops to fail.
