what was an effect of the decline in trade after the fall of the roman empire?\n○ people moved to new urban areas.\n○ small farms struggled and failed.\n○ there was a shift to a rural society.\n○ trade grew in other parts of europe.
Answer
Brief Explanations:
After the fall of the Roman Empire, trade decline led to less urban - based economic activity. People relied more on local, rural - based subsistence. Urban areas lost their economic pull as trade (a major urban economic driver) was reduced. Small farms (which could have been part of a more integrated trade - based agricultural system) is not the most direct effect compared to the societal shift. And trade did not grow in other parts of Europe immediately after the Roman Empire's fall in the context of this question.
Answer:
There was a shift to a rural society.
