About 100 A.D. the Han started to decline. The bureaucracy became corrupt and the power of the central government weakened. Local landlords became more powerful as government control and supervision declined. They increased the tax burden on the peasants and took many of their farms. As peasant unrest grew, a revolutionary movement emerged called the Yellow Turban. The Yellow Turbans were Daoists; their attempts at revolution failed.
Compounding this political weakness and peasant unrest was the effect of several devastating epidemics that wiped out nearly half the population. With all this internal turmoil, the weakened Han dynasty could not fend off the advance of the Hun invaders.
Even though the Han fell and initiated a period of chaos, there was not a permanent disruption of Chinese civilization. Briefly, the Sui dynasty ruled. Then in 618 the Tang dynasty emerged as one of the most glorious in Chinese history. They reinstated Confucian thought and revived and improved upon the Han style of bureaucracy. After the Hun invasions and the fall of the Han dynasty, the Chinese never had to reinvent their civilization.

here is ur answer......
The Decline and fall of the Mediterranean and Chinese civilizations was a result of population decrease, weak government, a frail economy, and invasion. A combination of these causes sparked the slow decline of these once great empires. Unlike that of China, the decline of Rome was much more upsetting having a much larger impact on the surrounding world.
