Even аs Rоme wаs under аttack frоm оutside forces, it was also crumbling from within thanks to a severe financial crisis. Constant wars and overspending had drained the imperial treasury, and oppressive taxation and inflation had widened the gap between rich and poor. To avoid taxes, many wealthy Romans fled to the countryside and set up independent estates. At the same time, the empire was rocked by a labor shortage. Rome’s economy depended on enslaved people to work in the fields and as craftsmen, and Roman military might provided a fresh supply of conquered peoples to serve in the army. But when expansion ground to a halt in the second century, Rome’s supply of enslaved people and other war treasures began to dry up. This caused a labor shortage that disrupted agriculture production and created more stress on the already weakened economy. A further blow came in the fifth century, when the Vandals (Germanic invaders) claimed North Africa and began disrupting the empire’s trade by prowling the Mediterranean as pirates. With its economy faltering and its commercial and agricultural production in decline, the Roman Empire began to lose its grip on Europe. Other economic issues included the hoarding of bullion (gold and silver) by Roman citizens, the widespread looting of the Roman treasury by barbarians, and a massive trade deficit with the eastern regions of the empire. Together these issues combined to escalate financial stress during the empire's last days. QUESTIONS: What were the problems that led to economic crisis in the 3rd century?
