Answer 1

The political problems that contributed to the fall of the Western Roman Empire include:

1. Splitting the empire when it was under attack
2. Continual civil wars between generals over succession

While the steep decline in available slave labor and reduction in the size of the imperial bureaucracy were issues that affected the empire, they are more economic and structural factors rather than directly political problems.
