Why / What Caused the Pisa Tower to Lean?

While most people think that the Leaning Tower of Pisa was designed to "lean", the tilt is actually an architectural folly. By the time the third story was constructed, the soft ground on which it was built resulted in a soil shift and subsequent destabilization of the tower's foundations. This was not planned for and neither were architects in the age prepared to handle such a scenario. In the next 800 years, architects realised that the Leaning Tower of Pisa was gradually leaning at a rate of one to two millimeters per year. Today, it stands more than five meters off perpendicular and is expected to remain stable only for the next 200 years. By the 23rd century, the ground is calculated to giving away, allowing for the tilt to slowly resume.
