Best Answer

As the Ottoman Empire expanded in size, it become more difficult for a centralized power to control all aspects of the empire. One consequence of this was that local leaders gained more autonomy, and made decisions that were not in the interest of the empire. The Ottoman Empire was in existence from 1299 to 1923.

What factors lead to the decline and fall of the Rome empire?

Three? A recent German study has come up with 210 reasons for the decline and fall of the Roman empire. (Don't worry, I won't list them all) Three of the main reasons were a population shift which caused pressure on the borders. The population shift came about because Germanic tribes were being pushed into Roman territory by Asian tribes. The Roman army at the fall, was weak and apathetic as there was no incentive for a strong army, such as loot and Roman citizenship for the auxiliaries. There was, in addition, a monetary factor, as more money left the empire than was taken in, due to excessive consumerism.
