A major reason why the Roman Empire ultimately fell, were the repeated and costly wars that Rome waged for an incredible 700 years against the Persian empire. From the time of Julius Caesar, until the time of Heraclius, would the Imperium have to spend incredible manpower to keep the Persians at bay. And the last conflict was so devastating, that the expanding Arabs could easily conqur Persia and large parts of the Roman Empire. Fascinatingly, the capital city of Persia, Ctesiphon was conquered and sacked 5 times by the Roman Empire. And the conquest of Trajan was so complete, that in those days the whole region of Mesopotamia was for a short while a Roman province. But Hadrian pulled out of the Region, and later emperors would also never manage to fully conquer Persia. The problem was that Ctesiphon was strategically not extremely important to the Persian empire as the main forces of Persia were located in the east. Thus, Persia could have sustained a long war, even with Mesopotamia occupied by Rome, and thus keeping the province would have been too costly for the Roman Empire. Conquering Persia once and for all would have needed the entire effort of the whole Roman army, but then all other provinces of the empire would have been left unprotected. Thus, Rome could just never expend the necessary manpower to subjugate Persia, because the germanic tribes were always waiting.
