Yes, I do think the white man causes Umuofia to fall apart. Bringing the Christian religion and converting clan members weakens the traditions of the clan. The white man's government enforces new laws that have nothing to do with the laws of the clan. The leaders of the clan lose power over their own people and the white man takes over.
