1. What were the Germanic migrations?

The decline of the Roman Empire  Germanic tribes lived to the north of the Roman Empire. The Romans called them barbarians (foreigners). The empire´s wealth and military weakness led to a series of Germanic migrations across the frontier. Some of them were violent invasions.

 Roman control over its northern territories gradually declined after the third century.  In 395, Emperor Theodosius divided the empire between his two sons, Honorius and Arcadius, to make it easier to defend.  Thus, the western and eastern provinces became the Western Roman Empire and the Eastern Roman Empire.  Romulus Augustulus, the last emperor of the Western Empire, was deposed in 476 a.D.  For some historians, this date marks the begining of the Middle Ages.

Theodosius division

The Germanic Kingdoms  The centralized government of the Western Empire was replaced by smaller kingdoms:  The Franks, in France  The Visigoths, in Spain  The Ostrogoths, and later the Lombards in Italy  The Angles and the Saxons, in Britain

Germanic Kingdoms

 It was dangerous to travel. Consequently, there was very little long distance trade, and many industries dissapeared. Cities declined, and people moved to the countryside.  Cultural activity also declined. Some examples of Germanic art have survived, such as small churches and attractive jewellery.  At first, the Romans and Germanics tribes had different laws, customs and religions. But they gradually intermingled, and in some places, the Germanic people spoke Latin and became Christians.
