Tribes around the northern borders of the Roman Empire were the Franks, Cherusci, Chatti, Hermunduri, Alemanni, Marcomanni, Quadi Iazyges, Dacians, Costoboci, Carpi, Sarmatians, and Scythians Apart from the Iazyges, Sarmatians and Scythians who were Iranian-speakers, these people were Germanic. The Goths formed a kingdom in Ukraine, northeast of the empire.
The Visigoths, Goths of the west, asked for permission to settle in the lower Danube area of the empire to escape the Huns. The emperor Valens granted this. The Ostrogoths (the Goths of the east) settled in Pannonia (eastern Austria and western Hungary) while this area was taken by the Huns. The Romans then recovered this area. The Flanks were allows by the Romans to settle in Holland south of the river Rhine and in Belgium.
The peoples who invaded the western part of the Roman Empire were the Vandals, Sueves, Alans, Burgundians and Alemanni. The Angles, Saxons, Jutes and Frisians migrated to Britain in waves.

How did the Germantic tribes damage the Roman empire?
At times during the Roman empire the Germanic tribes within the empire's borders or outside of them, attacked Roman legions or guardposts. Some became part of the Roman military as auxiliaries. Some were trained by the Romans and then used that training against Rome. Finally at the end of the empire the Germanic tribes were some of many barbarians that settled within the old Roman borders. Rome was in the end unable to defeat Germanic tribes in war.
Reasons why Germanic tribes attacked the Western Roman Empire?
They move into the Empire from the east, pushed by other peoples behind them. They were initially settled in the Empire on the borders to help protect them from later arrivals. They became integrated into the empire structure - the last Roman Emperor Romulus was replaced by his army commanded Odoacer, a Goth.

What are some external reasons for the fall of rome?
The first problem was the general decline in literacy and stability that began with the Crisis of the Third Century, in about 235 AD, a period of continual civil wars lasting a couple generations. The second problem was that Roman citizens were more an more inclined to allow themselves to be defended by foreigners. The loyalty of the foreign troupes was badly eroded by the fact that they were badly treated. Eventually, even the highest generals were not Roman. Another problem was that the Germanic peoples on the border of the Roman Empire started to migrate into the empire because they were being attacked from farther out. They formed armies which raided until they finally settled down to form kingdoms of their own. The Roman Empire was formally divided in 286, and this division became permanent in 395. The division left each part rather uninterested in the well being of the other. And the East Roman Empire could not help the West, even if it had the will to do so, because of ongoing wars with the Persians. The 5th century saw a series of weak emperors of the West Roman Empire, most of whom were merely puppets of their Germanic generals. There are people who blame Christianity for making people weak. I think the West Roman Empire had reasons enough without that. The East Roman Empire lasted another thousand years, until 1453, when it was destroyed, after many changes in fortune, by the Ottoman Turks, but that is not referred to as the fall of the Roman Empire.
