It’s nothing to do with technology. It has a LOT to do with conquering other cultures and not integrating themselves with those cultures, or vice versa… Essentially it was their way or no way.

Compare that to the vikings, which had a different attitude, letting people to continue worshiping their own gods etc…and you see why the viking’s legacy is more widespread in places like the UK etc.

There are many more factors, but this is a huge factor in their demise.
