There are many theories as to why the Maya civilization collapsed. Some say it was because of warfare, overpopulation, and even an over demanding ruler. I believe the Maya civilization collapsed because of warfare. There were many wars in their civilization and couldn't stop fighting. That is why they didn't have and emperor to rule all of the Maya culture.

The were bloody fights all over the empire. Due to this constant fighting, people couldn't grow crops and couldn't do anything. The crops died out and no people had any food to grow, which led to the end of the Maya civilization. Of course, this is only a theory. It hasn't been proven by anyone. Other people say it was because they had an overdemanding ruler. Others say it was due to many people living in the Mayas. Many people ate many crops, and there was not enough for everybody.
