'How do I make the navbar stay within the parent div (hero image) regardless of screen size?

I adjusted it based on my screen size, and I've tried using both relative and absolute positions for .navbar, but when I open it on my laptop the navbar content overflows the parent image, setting overflow to hidden doesn't fix the issue since i want it to stay over the bottom of the image at all times regardless of screen size. Here's the jsfiddle https://jsfiddle.net/Montinyek/4dbf5p9e/1/


body, html {
  height: 100%;
  margin: 0;
  padding:0;
  font-family: Times, Times New Roman, serif;
}

.hero-image {
  background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.5), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.2)), url(./hero.jpg);
  height: 80%;
  background-position: center;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: cover;
  position: relative;
  overflow: hidden;
}

.hero-text {
  text-align: center;
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 50%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);

I don't know if I understood well your issue, but I made some minor changes and got this result demo

HTML:

    <div class="hero-image">
      <div class="hero-text">
        <h1 style="font-size:50px">Welcome </h1>
      </div>
      <div class="navbar">
         <a class="main" href="#home">Home</a>
         <a class="main" href="#mission">Mission</a>
         <a class="main" href="#news">Contact</a>
         <div class="dropdown">
            <a class="main" href="#news">More<i class="fa fa-caret-down"></i></a>
            <div class="dropdown-content">
               <a style="color:rgb(238, 92, 92);" class="link" href="./index5.html">Gift</a>
               <a href="./index7.html">Travel</a>
