Best Answer

Northwest Europe was home to the Celtic tribes during the early Roman period. Julius Caesar conquered the Celtic tribe called the Gauls in what is now France. Before Roman power developed, the Gauls were expanding in Europe, extending there territory to central Turkey, where they were called the Galatians.

Later Romans conquered the southern part of Great Britain, while German tribes moved into eastern, central, and then Western Europe. During most of the rest of the western Empire, the Romans were fighting the Germans, often using German mercenaries. German tribes called Angles and Saxons conquered southern Great Britain, driving a tribe called the Bretons from England to the part of France now called Brittany.

A Germanic tribe called the Franks settled in northwestern Europe and became the power in the area as Roman power faded.
