Hundreds of years after the barbarians invaded and perished, the social, cultural, scientific and technological aspects of the Western Roman Empire came to a complete standstill. There was no emperor in western Europe in this era, and most historical documents were scattered and destroyed because of the war, which made people know little about the history of this period. At this time, the continental European regime was divided, wars often occurred between countries, and the population decreased sharply. Compared with ancient Rome, people had almost no city life, and the church closed and imprisoned people's minds.

During the European Renaissance, during the long and dark Middle Ages ruled by theocracy, most ancient Greek works have been lost in Europe. It is by translating these Arabic versions that Europeans can understand the thoughts of their ancestors and then start their Renaissance!

(ps: You can play total war if you are interested. Attila's western Roman regime experienced the feeling that powerful enemies were surrounded on all sides and barbarians from all directions were behind. At the beginning, he held a large territory, but domestic crises were everywhere, and foreign enemies were numerous: food shortage, unstable public security and rebellion everywhere. The generals seem to be loyal, but they have ulterior motives. The family lacks heirs and the lineage will be cut off. Although the territory is large, the armaments are lax. Foreign countries are nomadic and tyrannical barbarians, and the constant invasion is eating away at your huge but defenceless border. If the players of Rome II were the first emperors who were literate and practiced martial arts, then Attila players were the last emperors who took over a mess hundreds of years later. The empire is still there, the territory is still there, but times have changed. Rome is no longer the Rome it used to be. Marble architecture has long been replaced by another style. Until later, West Rome was destroyed. Emperor Dongluo put down his sword and eagle flag, knelt on the ground, closed his eyes and opened his arms to the sky, thanking God for his blessing. We survived the most difficult period. Although the country was destroyed, Rome survived and the fire of human civilization continued. )
