Roman Empire

For many centuries the fall of Rome marked the death kneel of education and literacy, architecture, and economic interaction. Dark ages was more necessary evil, Rome had to fall to destroy large scale of slavery. The captive barbarians are being fed to wild animals in the Colosseum. The central Roman state collapsed because the migrants forcibly stripped of its tax base which it has used to fund its armies, not because of long term transformation. As the central Roman state ceased to exert power in their localities, they either had to do such deals, or lose the lands that were the basis of their entire wealth. And even where Roman landowners survived, the effects of Rome's fall nonetheless revolutionary.
Many things happened in the pass, many thing happened in our Christianity world. Their are violent reactions and process that come through, but still God is working at hand and transforming the lives of the Roman empire people. At this point of view we see the selfishness of the people, bragging for their selves and not for the glory of God. 
In our life we seems to do that things too, not looking to others sake but only for the sake of our self, may this transformation be the caused that we come closer to God. We need to thank the Roman Empire to the things that they suffer that we did not suffer too.
