Mayan City

               The Mayan city was one of the most impressive places in history, it has thought-filled architectures, eventful history, and intelligent mathematical skills. The rise and fall of its reigns has brought attention from people, and slowly growing into one of the biggest and most successful civilizations in the ancient times. The ancient Mayan empire was centered in what is now known as, Guatemala.

               However, how and why did the great, almighty empire come to an end? This dramatic downfall of the empire came to everyone's attention, however, no one till this day really knows how it happened. Historians nowadays have come up with many theories but none of them have been proven correct.
                Some say it is due to the drastic climate changes in the environment around them as the Mayans built their empire around the element of nature. Some believe it ended due to the amount of warfare from the constant competing of being the ruler. Some also think it is due to nature not being able to cope with over-population; since the Mayan civilization became such a success, it attracted many to join. Others also believed that "they did it to themselves" and deforestation might be the cause, as most of the Mayan structures were made from limestone, in order to heat a square meter of limestone, 20 trees needed to be cut down, therefore causing many trees to be cut down, hence the decrease of about 20-30% in rainfall, and increase in temperature rise.
