A slow collapse is the M.O. for most Civilisations and they never see it coming. There have been a few notable exceptions to the rule,1-the Collapse of the Mexica, and 2, the destruction of the Kwarezmian Empire, by Cortez & Chingis Khan. This process of growth & inevitable decay is a fundamental law of physics called Entropy. Everything in this universe follows the same pattern of growth, maximum size, and then a slow decay. All these data can be shown on a simple Bell curve chart.
