After first raiding and looting Roman territory, some eventually came to serve as allies to the Empire. However, this allegiance would collapse following a Hun advancement that saw the Goths forced south against the Danube. Failure to negotiate settlement in this new, Roman-held territory led to wars, during which the Ostrogoths won a decisive victory over a Roman army at Adrianople (AD 378), and the Visigoths finally sacked Rome itself (AD 410).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this fascinating study, Roman military historians Raffaele D'Amato and Andrea Salimbeti examine Rome’s fierce clashes with the Gothic peoples, exploring their role in the fall of the Western Empire and eventual transition from Roman to early medieval Europe.
