The year was 390 BC. Gauls (the Celts of modern France), who had recently settled in Northern Italy, began to look for more land because of a population influx. Thus, the Gauls began expanding south, into Etruria. The Etruscans, overwhelmed by the massive numbers and sheer strength of the Gauls, turned to the Romans for help. The Romans sent envoys to a prominent Gallic chief to try and negotiate peace. Fighting broke out, and one of the Roman senators killed the Chief. The Gallic King, a man known only as Brennus, was infuriated, and demanded the life of the senator and all of his family members. The Romans refused, because several of the senator's family were senators or government officials themselves. Thus, the Gauls marched on Rome, entered the city, sacked it, controlled the city for seven months, and dominated it for forty years.

How did the Germanic trides invade rome in 410 CE?
German tribes immigrated to Rome under pressure from the Huns. Rome agreed to allow their immigration and to participate in the Roman economy if they came unarmed. This was an unrealistic requirement as most of the immigrants where displaced forcibly and feared for their lives. Eventually their open boarders policy became their downfall. They did not invade, they were invited by Rome.
What kind of clothing did the Celts wear?
Male Celts wore trousers and tunics (the length of the tunics often depended on the rank of the person - high ranked people tended to wear longer tunics). Female Celts wore dresses, and these dresses were often very cleverly decorated depending on the status of the woman. Female Celts nearer to Greece and Rome often copied the style of their dress from Greek clothing. All Celts (if they could afford it) wore a lot of jewellery, mainly torcs, earrings, rings, necklaces, anklets and headdresses.
