Focusing on the events leading to the fall of the Roman Empire, the narrative begins with the end of Marcus Aurelius's reign. Edward Gibbon argues that the decline resulted from a loss of moral strength, military resolve, and civic responsibility among the populace. Recognized as a classic in world literature, Gibbon's work is notable for its reliance on primary sources, establishing him as a pioneering figure in modern historical methodology. His insights continue to be referenced by scholars today.
