Also there were 8 emperors in the 1st 100 years 29 in the last 100 years. Rome was constantly at civil war with itself while trying to fight of the "barbarians" whom it is really not appropriate to refer to as barbarians as they had control of Rome for the last 50 years or so through puppet emperors. In the end Rome was doomed to fall after Valens waged war on the Goths and Alaric sacked Rome

Coachit means that Rome didn't just fall because it was invaded by several barbarian tribes from the north but that it fell because of it's own empire. Rome had over 40 leaders in the last 30 years, the government was corrupt, the rich no longer supported the military and the government only indulged in it's self. Rome caused it's self to fall

Why did rome want the british empire?
I think you mean "why did the Roman Empire want Britain."
