Ha -- now I know.
The fall of the Roman Empire was not caused by lead pipes, barbarian invasion, over taxation, or Christianity -- not at all. Your photo makes clear who the real culprit was -- Cola. hock:
The rampant and pervasive use of this soft drink (and others of its ilk) caused the rot within the Roman mouth which prevented them from eating resulting in their weakened state and thus their inability to stand up against the barbarian onslaught.
Thanks for bringing this little know fact to light Valerius.
Indeed, re-enactment can lead to true historical insight.
