And "The Fall" was a Roman general mad his army wasn't being paid, and ignores that the capital had moved, Rome the city was still ticking along and the "Byzantine Empire" called and considered themselves Roman.

Civilization Ending and The Fall of Rome was very much a Renaissance narrative about how great they were more than actual History.
