Seemingly endless masses of barbarian tribes attacked the Roman Empire for centuries. No sooner was one threat delt with than another would appear.
After centuries of war vs, the Republic, the Celts and Gauls were Incorporated into the empire, eventually gaining full citizenship.
After more than 100 years of raids against the Northern provinces of the Empire, the Anglo & Saxons conquered and settled Britannia.
The Franks, using their deadly Francisca axe
from which the tribe received its name,
overran Gaul (conquering the now "civilized" Gauls) giving a new name to their kingdom-France.
