Answer 1

All of the options listed can serve as external factors for a civilization's decline. However, if you need to choose one, **foreign invasion** is often considered a significant external factor that directly impacts a civilization's stability and control.

If you were looking for the single most prominent external factor, then **foreign invasion** would likely be the best answer. But all options are valid external factors in different historical contexts.
