Funny, I would have guessed several hundred years of autocratic leadership, often by mental incompetents, bankruptcy, a declining birthrate, disease, and constant warfare...but maybe those were cool years too.

All of these things led to civilizational collapse, but most of them went on all the time, not just during colder times. The declining birthrates and disease seems to be especially tied to colder weather.
