We often imagine empires falling to barbarian swords or invading hordes, but history tells a quieter, more insidious story. In this episode, we explore the economic rot that preceded the fall of Rome and the Han Dynasty. We look at how inflation, currency debasement, and tax evasion by the elite stripped these states of their ability to defend themselves. Lucas and Luna discuss the specific mechanisms of fiscal decay, from Nero’s reduction of silver content in the denarius to the land-hoarding practices that left the Han borders exposed. We examine why wealthy elites would rather hide their gold than fund the army, and how this internal betrayal was often more fatal than any external enemy. This is a deep dive into the ledger books of dead civilizations. #RomanEmpire #HanDynasty #EconomicHistory #CurrencyDebasement #Inflation #AncientRome #ImperialCollapse #FiscalPolicy #TaxEvasion #SilverDenarius #WuDi #Constantine #LateAntiquity #HistoricalEconomics #SupplyChains #MilitaryFunding #ElitePower #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
