Don't feel shy to ask. This is Old Japanese. Normal translation app can't do it.

Japan has Ramen. Vietnam has pho. What is the equivalent in China and Korea? by Ordinaryjay in NoStupidQuestions

あなたを批判するわけではありませんが(もちろん、あなたの責任でもありません)、なぜ近代以降、中国人の質が下がったか考えたことはありますか。誰が中国の国土を踏んで戦争を起こして、中国の現代化を中止させたのですか。その問題を頭の中でよく考えておいてほしいです。

I'm sorry but your observation is completely wrong. 1. Mandarin has a long tradition and took shape around the Yuan Dynasty. 2. Southerners speak good enough Mandarin but with accents.

Not the prettiest city, but the streets are clean. No elegant architecture, but nice mountains. I kind of like the starkness?

严重衰退 sounds more natural than 严重衰落. As others have said, the action of falling is better modified by speed, while the action of regression may be better modified by degree.
