The six-volume history "History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire" was authored by Edward Gibbon. Volume 2 of the series covers the period from the downfall of the final Western Roman Emperor Romulus Augustus in AD 476 to the reign of the Roman Emperor Gratian in AD 375. This book covers the fall of the Western Roman Empire, including the political upheaval, tribal invasions, economic hardships, and religious strife. It also talks about the establishment of the Byzantine Empire, often known as the Eastern Roman Empire, and its wars with Persia. Gratian, Valentinian, Theodosius, and Honorius are just a few of the emperors whose reigns are covered in-depth by Gibbon. He also talks on how Christianity contributed to the fall of the Roman Empire and the rise of the Catholic Church. Romulus Augustus' removal from power signals the end of the Western Roman Empire and brings the volume to a conclusion. Gibbon's work is regarded as a classic in the history discipline because of its in-depth analysis, copious research, and critical perspective.
