∙ 10y agoIt was the western part of the Roman Empire which collapsed under the weight of the Germanic invasions. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years. Historians have coined the term Byzantine Empire to indicate the eastern part of the Roman Empire after the fall of the western part.
Several kingdoms were created on the former lands of the western part of the empire: the kingdom of the Vandals in north-western Africa, the kingdom of the Visigoths in Spain and Portugal, the kingdom of the Burgundians in eastern France and the Kingdom of the Franks in Holland south of the River Rhine, Belgium, northern, central and south-western Gaul. The Ostrogoths formed a kingdom in Italy, the former Yugoslavia and western Hungary.
The Franks formed the strongest kingdom and conquered the whole of France, the rest of Holland, southern Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Pepin then conquered northern and central Italy on behalf of the pope. His son Charlemagne created the Carolingian Empire and conquered northern Spain and northern Germany. Therefore, this empire covered most of mainland Western Europe.

The Barbarians of Europe did not, for the most part, have the abilities or knowledge to build roads, aqueducts or the other marvels of the Roman Empire, which is why the period immediately after Rome's collapse is often referred to as the "Dark Ages".
