Best Answer

Germanic peoples invaded Gaul in the early 5th century they were the Vandals, Sueves, and Burgundians from central Europe and the Alemanni from southern Germany. The Angles, Saxons and Jutes from northern Germany and the Frisians from the north of the Netherlands migrated to Britain in waves and took it over. One of the invading people, the Alans, were Iranian speakers.

The invasions caused the western part of the Roman Empire to fall. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not touched by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years.
