The correct answer is D. The surrender of the Roman emperor in 476 C.E.

Step-by-step explanation

When historians mention the Fall of the Roman Empire they refer to the fall of the Roman Empire That existed from 27 BC. until 476 AD due to the emperor being unable to control the empire, this occurred in 476 A.D.that existed from 27 BC. until 476 AD. This empire was disintegrated by the expansion of Christianity and the Barbarian Invasions. In the first place, Christianity came as a religion that gave hope to the population, different from the old Roman religion, because in Christianity it was believed in life after death. Secondly, the barbarian invasions caused great loss of territory for the empire, at the same time, most of the Roman army had more and more military and barbarian origin, which were ascending on the social scale and permeating Roman society demonstrating the decline of Roman authorities until his surrender in 476 AD when the emperor Romulus Augustus surrenderer. So, the correct answer is D. the surrender of the Roman emperor in 476 C.E.
