The Confederacy had capable military commanders because many West Point graduates resigned from the US to join the Confederacy. Also, each Southern state had at least one private military college. VMI in Virginia is one such example.

What is one reason why the roman empire weakened?

There was a period of military anarchy which historians call the Crisis of the Third Century. Emperors were military commanders who were proclaimed by their own troops. These were challenged by other military commanders who were hailed emperors by their own troops. There was a lot of infighting. Most emperors were murdered, sometimes even by their own troops who had elevated them as emperors because they did not want to fight civil wars. There was also hyperinflation, which crippled trade and the economy. This situation was brought to an end and the empire recovered. However, it did not return to its previous prosperity.
