The fall of western part of the Roman Empire was not the result of destruction. It fell because of a gradual process involving several invasions though which various invaders took over various parts of its lands. The last emperor in the west was Romulus Augustus. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years.
