Athens played a significant role in its own downfall through its overextension during the Peloponnesian War, where aggressive imperial ambitions and military expenditures strained resources. The plague that struck the city weakened its population and morale, while internal political strife and the eventual loss of critical battles against Sparta further eroded its power. Additionally, Athenian democracy's susceptibility to populism led to poor decision-making, contributing to its decline. Ultimately, these factors combined undermined Athens' stability and influence, leading to its eventual defeat.
