Who attacked Rome in 387 BC?
In about 387 BC a people called the Gauls attacked Rome and took over they city. Soldiers from the Senone Tribe of the Gauls (who were from Marche, on the east coast of Central Italy) sacked Rome, but did not take it over. They left after Rome agreed to pay 1,000 pounds of Gold. It is thought that they were mercenaries hired by Hierro of Syracuse (in Sicily) on their way south to Calabria (the toe of Italy) to fight there. They were interested in booty and ransom, not in taking over. The date of the Gallic sack is uncertain. 390 BC and 387 BC are two possible dates. Historians tend to settle for 390 BC.

What years make up the middle ages?
The middle ages lasted approx. 900 years. They began around 500 AD and lasted until 1400 AD. Historians disagree on the exact year they began. Some say it started with the barbarian Odoacer overthrowing Emperor Romulus Augustus in 476 AD. Others feel it began in 410 when Alaric sacked Rome ( I agree with this one). There is also a disagreement on when it ended. Some say it was with the fall of Constantinople in 1453 and others say with the discovery of North America in 1492. Finally, a third group thinks it was with the beginning of the Reformation in 1517 ( I also agree with the this group).
