Key Concept Missing in Chapter Body

Quoted text:

Urban sprawl and overpopulation, followed in the late Roman Empire by deurbanization and a descent into the Dark Age as commercial activity decayed and families withdrew to self-sufficient estates on the land.

Can you help us add the phrase “Dark Age” to the Chapter 9 body in proper context of the late Roman Empire? (The First Dark Age—see Chronology and Maps chapter for possible answers; search for “Dark Age.”)
