Best Answer

The price of rubber began to fall as more was being sold. The Amazon merchants could not afford to sell their rubber as cheaply as the Asian merchants did. Amazon rubber was much harder to find and collect since it was spread out through the forest. The wealthy merchants lost their money and left. Manaus became a small trading town with many beautiful buildings that were slowly overrun by the jungle.
