The eventual sack of Rome and the splitting of the Empire into Eastern and Western halves contributed to its downfall." } ]
[ { "from": "human", "value": "Explain the principle of supply and demand in economics and its effect on prices." }, { "from": "gpt", "value": "The principle of supply and demand is a fundamental concept in economics that describes how the price of a good or service is determined by the relationship between its availability (supply) and the desire for it (demand). When demand for a product increases and supply remains unchanged, the higher demand leads to higher prices. Conversely, if the supply of a good increases without a change in demand, the increased availability leads to lower prices. This interaction ensures that resources are allocated efficiently, as high prices encourage producers to supply more of a product, while low prices signal a surplus, reducing production." } ]
