Lack of technological progress in late Roman Empire
#2
That period of Roman history isn't my forte, but from what I understand of economics, a lack of competition could have been to blam for the lack of innovation. Were the Roman people relatively content during this period? When people allow themselves to become comfortable, they aren't driven to improve their lives.
