Some errors. The downfall of Enron began when Internorth paid too much for Houston Natural Gas, Ken Lay's company and gave him power. That was in 1985 not 1997. The first glaring crimes occurred at the Valhalla, NY, Enron Trading operation which lost almost $200 million. Ken Lay only changed the name to Enteron and then quickly to Enron. Then came a series of catastrophic decisions and selling assets to cover losses and then cam embezzlement and fraud. Ken Lay and his cronies were the worst decision. They has immense pride and could not admit to themselves or the business community that they were failures. The only profitable part that was left was Northern Natural Gas which is now owned by the immensely profitable, Warren Buffett. Ken Lay had little to do with NNG.

This really did not explain a whole lot. I would have just mentioned that they used a different accounting measure (mark-to-market accounting) that ultimately inflated their actual revenue, meanwhile, hiding the debt in its subsidiaries and accounting them as other forms of revenue so they could hide their debt. Additionally, they misused the practice of securitization and mixed their debts and other forms of assets just for the sake of taking them out of there balance sheet. That said, a lot of the business practices they did were not signed off by anyone–which can be attributed to the CFO Andy Fastow–because it would have been a case of check and balance against Enron, so there was a case of fraud because the transactions being transferred were to Fastow's FLM2 business–among other entities. This also posed as a conflict of interest but was largely knowingly ignored by executives of Enron. Essentially, the whole case boiled down to inflating their book's value, while hiding their debt from shareholders.

Enron is also the one who pursued the Bush Administration to initiate the Afghan Invasion in order to oust the Taliban who had rejected Enron's offers of building a gas pipeline from Turkmenistan-Afghanistan-Pakistan-India/Arabian Sea.
