Has anyone ever stopped and observed that almost every monumental society in history is not present or not at its full potential right now. Now, most of these unique cultures survive only on the Internet and in books across the Earth. There can be multiple ways in which any single society transforms into a section of a different country or culture. But there are only a few that can bring about the complete fall of the world's greatest empires. Political corruption can provide fewer funds to the public and leave a society unstable and more unprepared for an incursion. Civil wars kill many natives fighting against each other and often end with many people dead and the country exposed to other forces. External invasion destroys a culture and usually ends almost any great nation or empire. Civil wars, external invasions and political corruption are the components of the failure of civilizations that have had an impact on the absolute downfall of societies. Civil wars are an extremely significant reason for the collapse of immense societies. These wars with one country against itself divide the nation into two parts or leave them vulnerable to attack. An incessant conflict has been underway in Syria since March 2011 and has devastated the country located in the Middle East. The war was fought because one side believes that the current leader should no longer be in power. The opposition force supports the government and wants its ruler, Bashar al-Assad, to remain in office and govern the territory. Tens of thousands of Syrians have died fighting among themselves for those in power, and this has significantly deteriorated the country. “More than 2.5 million Syrians have fled their homes since the outbreak of the civil war in March 2011, taking refuge in neighboring countries... at the center of the paper... major empires were civil wars, political corruption and invasion by external forces. Civil wars kill many of a civilization's inhabitants who fight against each other for various reasons, and often leave them vulnerable to invasion. Political corruption takes mixed forms and, in most cases, diverts money and resources from critical tasks, leaving society unstable and more unprepared for an attack from outside. Each of these cases has occurred numerous times over time. Governments and their citizens must look back at those events and do what they can to overcome the crisis and move forward. If countries or societies do not attempt to do so, they will descend and disperse into another culture. Ultimately, a society will fall to nothing or rise again depending on whether it chooses to pay attention to what others have done wrong and fix it..
