Answer :

"B. Travel became difficult and dangerous as lawlessness increased and roads fell into disrepair" is an accurate statement about the fall of the Roman Empire and its effect on culture and civilization in Western Europe.

The correct answer is "B".

The Western Roman Empire consisted of several regions which were governed by imperial courts from 396 to 476. However, this political system would eventually fall and lay the path to the emergence of Western European kingdoms that ruled Europe for many centuries until the 18th and 19th centuries. This territory would suffer numerous changes in the way it was politically administrated. This included the founding of the Holy Roman Empire in the year 800 and the rise Charlemagne as emperor.
