Very often people from areas or nations that were conquered by ancient Rome were allowed to serve as auxiliary troops which supported the Roman legions. Rome had added European nations that were near two major rivers, the Rhine and the Danube. Germanic tribes could be found in and around these frontiers of the Roman Empire. A good number of Germans were part of the empire. Not all Germanic peoples were part of the empire and many remained hostile to it. Germanic peoples who decided to be allies of the Romans formed auxiliary troops, which were given a tribute. The Visigoths were allowed to settle in the lower Danube area to escape attacks from the Huns from the East. Sometimes they fought alongside the Romans and sometimes against them. In the Late Empire the Romans had a shortage of soldiers, especially after many veterans were killed at the Battle of Adrianople in 378. Because of this, the Romans hired many Germanic soldiers as mercenaries.
