Best Answer

As the Eurasian peoples moved towards and into the Empire, The Romans could not match them in numbers, and started recruiting them into its army. While this stabilised the situation initially, the inevitable happened and the now-Gothic army took over in the Western Empire. The Eastern Empire was able to reform itself and continued on.
