Best Answer

During the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire the Vandals and the Alans migrated to Africa from Spain and occupied northern Morocco in 435. They then moved to Tunisia and formed the Kingdom of the Vandals in northern Tunisia and eastern Algeria. The various peoples in Northern Morocco, western Algeria, southern Tunisia and western Libya became independent.

Eastern Libya and Egypt continued to be under the eastern part of the Roman Empire (which outlasted the western part and which historians call Byzantine Empire) until 639--42 when they were invaded by the Arabs, who then conquered the whole of North Africa.

the Germans, or perhaps they should be called a Germanic tribe. They were the Vandals who established themselves in North Africa in about 429.
