The rule of Commudus marked the beginning of decline of the Roman Empire. A sudden rise in inflation during his reign damaged the credit market. This led to reduced distance trade, a disrupting of Rome's mining operations and the transfer of gold outside the empire by invading enemies, all served to diminish the money supply and banking.
