Inferior Technology

Inferior Technology
During the last 400 years of the roman empire , the scientific achievements of the Romans were almost entirely limited to engineering and organization of public services.) (They built marvelous roads, bridges, and aqueducts.) (They also established the first system of medicine the benefit the poor.) (The Romans relied so much on animal and human labor that they failed to invent machines or discover new technology to produce goods more efficiently.) They could not produce goods fast enough for the growing population which led to shortages and higher prices due to supply and demand. this made many people angry because they got less for their money. All in all inferior technology lightly contributed to the fall of Rome.
