Answer: see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

the fall was because of the strain of the invasions by the Germanic peoples. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1000 years.

Answer:

Several factors contributed to the fall of the Western Roman Empire, including the socioeconomic and political instability of the empire, the Germanic invasion and the invasion of other so-called "barbarian" tribes, the rapid rise of the Eastern Roman Empire, and more.
