A toy model for the rise and collapse of societies — •Alexander Jochim and Stefan Bornholdt — Institute for Theoretical Physics, University of Bremen

Societal collapse as in ancient Rome is rather common than an exception along history. Similar patterns can be observed along time and space, and modern societies are potentially as vulnerable. Relying on empirical data, recent work has introduced mathematical models for long term processes in society. Here we report on a simple, physics-inspired model that exhibits metastable states and phases of collapse or sustained prosperity
