Barbarians

1- 450

Barbarian civilizations, such as the Goths, Huns, and Mongols, played pivotal roles in shaping Europe and Asia. The Goths, divided into Visigoths and Ostrogoths, contributed to the fall of the Western Roman Empire and established powerful kingdoms in Europe. The Huns, led by Attila, caused widespread disruption across Eastern Europe and pressured the Roman Empire’s borders. Centuries later, the Mongols, under leaders like Genghis Khan, built one of the largest empires in history, influencing vast regions of Asia and Europe through their conquests, trade, and cultural exchanges.
