Best Answer

The Goths began invading and taking over Roman territory starting in about 376 AD. By 476 when Flavius Odoacer, the first King of Italy, deposed the Roman Emperor Romulus, Rome was no more - in part due to the depredations of the Goths. Note it was primarily two branches of the Goths - namely the Visigoths and Ostrogoths who played a major roll in the fall of the Roman Empire.
