How did the geographical size of the roman empire contribute to its decline and fall HELP PLS

Explanation:

To keep this short, the empire was so large it became near to impossible to control the borders. As the empire became bigger, tribes were joined into it. People could no longer be one with roman culture and weren't reliable enough to defend the borders. While the borders were getting more vast and the lack of people to guard it - they were attacked by different places. This led to being unaware of dangerous attacks and with that, they weren't able to keep up. In other words, too much land and too few people.

here are some events that to cause increased conflict between the north and south

1) mexican cession- gaining modern day california, utah, arizona, and new mexico from mexico. caused southern and northern politicians to fight over whether or not there would be slavery in these newly acquired territories.

2) uncle tom's cabin- this famous book described the cruelty of slavery in the south during the antebellum period, causing more northerners to support abolition and southerners to resent the book as they felt it unfairly depicted southern society.

3) kansas- nebraska act- disagreements over whether or not kansas and nebraska would be free or slave states caused issues between northern and southern politicians in congress.

4) bleeding kansas- this fighting took place in kansas after congress allowed this territory to vote on whether or not they would have slavery. citizens were killed and buildings were destroyed during this fighting.
