Despite the empirical success of general relativity and quantum mechanics, attempts to unify the two frameworks have remained conceptually incomplete. Persistent difficulties in quantizing gravity suggest that gravitation may not be a fundamental interaction, but an emergent phenomenon. This paper proposes a framework in which spacetime curvature and gravitational behavior arise from spatial gradients in quantum entanglement density induced by decoherence. By treating entanglement as a coarse-grained physical substrate and decoherence as the mechanism that converts quantum relational structure into classical geometry, gravity is reframed as an effective geometric consequence rather than a primary force. The framework recovers general relativity in the classical limit, explains the resistance of gravity to conventional quantization, and generates falsifiable predictions distinguishing it from ΛCDM and modified gravity models. Implications for cosmology, quantum foundations, and the unification problem are discussed.
