The decline of the Ming dynasty began with internal strife and corruption, which weakened the government's effectiveness. This was exacerbated by natural disasters and famines in the late 17th century, leading to widespread discontent among the population. Additionally, the financial strain from military campaigns, particularly against the Manchus, further depleted resources. Ultimately, these factors culminated in the peasant uprisings and the eventual invasion by the Manchu forces, leading to the fall of the dynasty in 1644.
