The correct answer is false.

It is false that the rise of successor states after the fall of Rome led to a decline in Christianity.

The fall of the Roman Empire occurred in September of 476 AD, when Odovacar, a German Prince, deposed Emperor Romulus Augustus. After 500 years of total dominance, the Roman Empire collapsed. Many kings began to rule their different states. But one thing that did not happen was the decline of Christianity, This religion was already ingrained in most of the people that had lived under the Roman Empire rule.

That would be a major False! Christianity rose to the peak of its history after the fall of Rome. The successor of Rome were the Byzantines, they were the ones who put Christianity on the map if you ask me. Even today most of the ancient Christianity picture you find in Eastern museums were all from the Byzantines! Even after the Byzantines empire fell, the Russians took on Christianity. So False.
