Who capture rome in 476 ADand declared himself the king of Italy?
Flavius Odoacer. He did not capture Rome in 476 by the way; he captured the city of Ravenna which by then had become the seat of Roman Government and the place where the last Roman Emperor lived. After his takeover, the Roman Senate invited him to Rome where he was hailed as the new ruler of Italy.
How many years passed between Rome's early days as a little settlement and its invasion in the 5th century?
Rome was never a little settlement. The foundation of Rome involved the unification of a number of independent settlements on what were to become the seven hills of Rome. Therefore, it was a sizable city-state from the beginning. The date given by the Roman tradition for the foundation of Rome is 853 BC. The city of Rome was never invaded. It was sacked four times, but it was not invaded or taken over. What was invaded was the western part of the Roman Empire. Its invasions started in 406 AD. The conventional date used by historians for the fall of the western part of the empire is 476. The invaders eventually took over the lands of this part of the empire, but did not take the city of Rome.
What effect did the goths attack on rome in 410 have on the citizens of rome?
The Gothic attack on Rome in 410 was a major shock to the citizens of Rome as it was the first time in nearly 800 years that the city had been successfully invaded. It had a significant impact on their morale and sense of security, undermining their faith in the invincibility of Rome. It also accelerated the decline of the Western Roman Empire and contributed to the eventual fall of the city in 476.
Who invaded and sacked the city of Rome in 410 AD?
The Romans were conquered by a combination of: Half of their Empire breaking away and becoming the Byzantine Empire, the Invading Visigoths, Goths, and Franks from the northern territories and inner corruption and societal collapse.----But the Roman Empire was not conquered in 410 AD. The city of Rome was sacked by Visigoths, who spent three days looting, without much in the way of rape, murder, or destruction. After that the Visigoths went away and left the city alone.The government was almost entirely unaffected. The capital of the West Roman Empire was Ravenna at the time, and both the emperor, Honorius, and the senate survived completely unharmed except in reputation. Honorius remained emperor until 423, when he died of natural causes. The last emperor of the West was deposed in 476, at which time the Roman Senate asked the emperor of the East to assume control, and the Senate continued to operate in Italy until the beginning of the 7th century.The East Roman Empire lasted until 1453. During its time, it was always called the Roman Empire, and the term "Byzantine Empire" was introduced in 1557 by Hieronymus Wolf, who resurrected the name Byzantium, which Constantinople had before it was renamed and made a capital by Constantine the Great. The Byzantines would doubtless have considered the idea that they lived in a "Byzantine Empire" strange.Many historians date the fall of the Roman Empire at 476, but I do not think this was done before the 18th century. The article below on the Decline of the Roman Empire, gives no earlier date, but indicates that there was speculation on when the Roman Empire fell before Gibbon used the date 476 in his Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, which was published in 1776.There are links below.
