What on Earth Happened to the Goths?
Who were the ancient Goths of Europe, and how did they go from conquerors of the Roman Empire, to the strange underground subculture we see today? Today we will discuss the history of the Ostrogoths, Visigoths, Vandals and other relevant groups from around this time period, and how they managed to dominate Europe, if only for the briefest of moments, only to fall into obscurity in only a matter of decades (or did they?)
Please let me know your thoughts on the Goths as a nation, culture, kingdom and their influences on our modern societies today. Thanks for watching!

ALARIC THE GOTH: AN OUTSIDER’S HISTORY OF THE FALL OF ROME by Douglas Boin - Review by Jared
Mob violence in imperial capitals has been in the news lately, so there's never been a better time to talk about the Goths' Sack of Rome. Douglas Boin's ALARIC THE GOTH: AN OUTSIDER'S GUIDE TO THE FALL OF ROME illuminates our understanding of what actually happened in and around the year 410 when an army of disgruntled barbarians entered the city of Rome determined to take what the felt they were owed. The Goths were much different than any contemporary disgruntled mobs that may come to mind. Let's talk about ALARIC THE GOTH - a great book that you should pick up soon!

Solar Stones of the Goths - Gotland 🇸🇪
The famous picture stones of Gotland are like Viking rune stones from Scandinavia, but they have pictures and fewer runes. The themes and images depicted on them developed over the Iron Age and into the Viking Age. Originally they seem to have pertained to some kind of Indo-European solar cult involving horses, but later stones have more familiar figures from Norse mythology.
Early stones could have served as grave monuments which may explain the solar iconography focusing on the eternal solar cycles. There are many images relating to death - including sleipnir, the sacrifice, battles and possibly valknutl. Cremation graves sometimes found at foot of stones.
I also explain that Gutasaga records Gotland as the homeland of the Goths and that the nation was founded by Tjelvar, servant of ...

What on Earth Happened to the Huns?
Just what on Earth happened to the Huns; possibly one of history's most infamous group of marauding nomads who wrought chaos and conquest throughout Central Asia and Europe? The Huns have gone down in Western history as one of the most brutal, savage and fearsome opponents of the Roman Empire, but where did they originally come from and what happened to them after the days of Attila?
In today's video, we're going to be looking at the origins of the Huns and other Eurasian nomads who invaded Europe from lands afar, and see just what happened to their descendants from a genetic, political and cultural point of view. Thanks for watching!

History of the VISIGOTHS in SPAIN🇪🇸
🔴 SUBSCRIBE to the channel! 👉 CLICK HERE: http://bit.ly/3y2EYHj
In 476 AD, the Roman Empire collapsed due to internal issues and external pressure from Barbarian invasions. In 409, the Iberian Peninsula was invaded by the Sueves, Vandals, and Alans. The Visigoths arrived in 416 as Roman allies and eventually established their capital in Toledo after losing to the French.
King Leovigildo unified the peninsula in 585, and his son Recaredo achieved religious unity by converting to Catholicism. In 654, the legal code Liber Iudiciorum was introduced, merging Roman and Visigoth laws.
In 710, the Muslim forces defeated the Visigoths, conquering most of the peninsula. Notable figures like Saint Isidoro contributed to learning, and Visigoth architecture and metalwork left lasting legacies.

The famous picture stones of Gotland are like Viking rune stones from Scandinavia, but they have pictures and fewer runes. The themes and images depicted on them developed over the Iron Age and into the Viking Age. Originally they seem to have pertained to some kind of Indo-European solar cult involving horses, but later stones have more familiar figures from Norse mythology.
Early stones could have served as grave monuments which may explain the solar iconography focusing on the eternal solar cycles. There are many images relating to death - including sleipnir, the sacrifice, battles and possibly valknutl. Cremation graves sometimes found at foot of stones.
I also explain that Gutasaga records Gotland as the homeland of the Goths and that the nation was founded by Tjelvar, servant of Thor, whose grave I visit. It is a stone ship setting.

Just what on Earth happened to the Huns; possibly one of history's most infamous group of marauding nomads who wrought chaos and conquest throughout Central Asia and Europe? The Huns have gone down in Western history as one of the most brutal, savage and fearsome opponents of the Roman Empire, but where did they originally come from and what happened to them after the days of Attila?
In today's video, we're going to be looking at the origins of the Huns and other Eurasian nomads who invaded Europe from lands afar, and see just what happened to their descendants from a genetic, political and cultural point of view. Thanks for watching!

Just what on Earth happened to the Huns; possibly one of history's most infamous group of marauding nomads who wrought chaos and conquest throughout Central Asia and Europe? The Huns have gone down in Western history as one of the most brutal, savage and fearsome opponents of the Roman Empire, but where did they originally come from and what happened to them after the days of Attila?
In today's video, we're going to be looking at the origins of the Huns and other Eurasian nomads who invaded Europe from lands afar, and see just what happened to their descendants from a genetic, political and cultural point of view. Thanks for watching!

In 476 AD, the Roman Empire collapsed due to internal issues and external pressure from Barbarian invasions. In 409, the Iberian Peninsula was invaded by the Sueves, Vandals, and Alans. The Visigoths arrived in 416 as Roman allies and eventually established their capital in Toledo after losing to the French.
King Leovigildo unified the peninsula in 585, and his son Recaredo achieved religious unity by converting to Catholicism. In 654, the legal code Liber Iudiciorum was introduced, merging Roman and Visigoth laws.
In 710, the Muslim forces defeated the Visigoths, conquering most of the peninsula. Notable figures like Saint Isidoro contributed to learning, and Visigoth architecture and metalwork left lasting legacies.
