Content: This
 
shame
 
led
 
to
 
a
 
decline
 
in
 
the
 
sense
 
of
 
loyalty
 
that
 
people
 
had
 
towards
 
the
 
empire. For
 
centuries
 
many
 
people
 
were
 
very
 
proud
 
to
 
consider
 
themselves
 
part
 
of
 
the
 
empire. However,
 
the
 
introduction
 
of
 
the
 
social
 
problems
 
of
 
corruption,
 
crime,
 
and
 
unemployment
 
meant
 
that
 
people
 
did
 
not
 
take
 
pride
 
in
 
being
 
a
 
Roman
 
citizen. Another
 
problem
 
that
 
led
 
to
 
fall
 
of
 
the
 
empire
 
was
 
the
 
weakening
 
of
 
the
 
empire’s
 
frontiers
 
or
 
borders. The
 
huge
 
size
 
of
 
the
 
empire
 
made
 
it
 
very
 
difficult
 
to
 
defend. It
 
sometimes
 
took
 
weeks
 
for
 
leaders
 
in
 
Rome
 
to
 
communicate
 
with
 
the
 
generals
 
that
 
were
 
defending
 
the
 
borders. By
 
the
 
300’s
 
C.E.’s
 
the
 
Non
 
-
 
Roman
 
tribes
 
north
 
of
 
the
 
Danube
 
River,
 
known
 
as
 
the
 
Germanic
 
tribes,
 
were
 
invading
 
and
 
stealing
 
food
 
and
 
other
 
goods
 
from
 
the
 
empire. In
 
330
 
C.E.
 
the
 
emperor
 
Constantine
 
took
 
a
 
step
 
that
 
changed
 
the
 
future
 
of
 
Roman
 
Empire
 
forever. He
 
moved
 
the
 
capital
 
of
 
the
 
empire
 
from
 
the
 
Italian
 
city
 
of
 
Rome
 
to
 
the
 
city
 
of
 
Byzantium
 
which
 
was
 
850
 
miles
 
east
 
and
 
not
 
in
 
danger
 
of
 
invasion
 
from
 
the
 
Germanic
 
tribes. He
 
renamed
 
the
 
city
 
the
 
city
 
New
 
Rome.
