One: the implosion of central authority in Rome, where an ever-faster succession of Emperors were mostly busy with (literally) surviving until killed, usually by their own supporters. Two: the great movement across Europe of whole populations, uprooted elsewhere, who often (and often successfully) tried to settle in the Roman Empire's provinces, further eroding Roman authority there. It was the westernRoman Empire that collapsed, by the way. The eastern part of the Roman Empire - better known as the Byzantine Empire - would carry on for another thousand years.
By the time the last western Roman Emperor ruled, his rule hardly extended beyond today's Italy. When he was deposed, his Gothic successor Odoacer did not even bother to call himself Roman Emperor anymore. He simply called himself King of Italy.
The Roman empire became too big and the people outside of the Roman empire started to attack. From then on out, the empire just continued to collapse.

Nero's actions had nothing at all to do with the collapse of the Roman empire. He ruled roughly 300 years before the collapse.

1453 is the year of the final collapse of the Roman empire. It is the year that Constantinople fell to the Ottoman Turks.
No is a correct answer to the question of what caused the decline and fall of the Roman Empire. The reasons for its collapse are plentiful, as example, Rome's inability to field legions to protect its frontiers. The size of the Roman Empire was extremely large and the socalled barbarians increased in numbers and in aggression towards Rome. The Roman peoples lack of patriotism toward its corrupt leaders is another reason. An unstable monetary system added to Rome's problems. Internal civil strife among Rome's leaders led to civil wars and lack of focus on issues that were required to sustain the Empire. The list goes on and on. Many of the issues that caused the fall of Rome were handled quite effectively in the years of the Roman Republic and early Roman Empire.
