What happened to the "Little Ice Age" in the Ming Dynasty? Why did it indirectly lead to the fall of the Ming Dynasty?

The Little Ice Age during the Ming Dynasty caused the people to lose their harvest, and the crops in the crop fields froze to death due to the cold climate. At that time, the people had to face severe cold without food. As a result, many people froze to death because the climate was too cold. In addition, the weather was cold at that time, and because there was nothing to eat, many people had to eat wild vegetables.

After the wild vegetables are eaten, only the leaves and bark can be eaten. During the Little Ice Age, many people froze to death because they could not survive. And those people who were still struggling ended up competing with rats for food. And with the change of climate, a series of geological disasters broke out. At that time, there was even a locust plague. Wherever the locusts went, the food was eaten by the locusts.

And later, as the disaster continued to spread, the plague even broke out. Because of the plague, many people died in the Ming Dynasty. In the end, these people simply starved to death or froze to death because they did not survive the Little Ice Age. By the Qing Dynasty, the population was less than 50 million.

For rulers, if they want to maintain their rule, they must appease the people so that they will not starve. In the Ming Dynasty, due to the Little Ice Age and the official corruption at that time, the people were living in dire straits.

In the end, the arrival of the Little Ice Age directly broke the last straw in the hearts of the people. In order to survive, the people at that time had no choice but to revolt. After all, for the common people, no matter who the emperor is, it is okay. As long as the common people are fed and clothed, then the common people will support whoever they are. Therefore, during the Ming Dynasty, because many people froze to death and starved to death, the people would directly overthrow a dynasty in order to survive.

However, no scientists have been able to explain why the Little Ice Age occurred during the Ming Dynasty. The Little Ice Age of the Ming Dynasty accelerated the collapse of the Ming Dynasty.
