These long wars left them exhausted and northern Italy was invaded by the Lombards, who then also took over parts of central Italy. The Byzantines held on to southern Italy and part of central Italy. Southern Spain had been taken from the Visigoths, who were the great power in Spain. The Visigoths retook it. They had the home advantage and the population of the Byzantine Empire had been decimated by the Plague of Justinian. The territory in Tunisia and western Libya were lost to the invasion by the Arabs, who went on to take the whole of North Africa.

Roman military policy was driven by three goals: (1) Subdue or conquer tribes, territories or nations that might attack or invade Rome or Italia. Examples are the campaigns in Gaul and Germania. (2) Conquer and hold territory that could provide food, supplies and wealth for Rome. The classic example is Aegyptus which at that time was a successful agricultural region and provided a significant amount of the grain used to feed the Roman people. Much of the produce of all Italia flowed into the hands of the city of Rome. (3) Control Mediterranean shipping and trade by occupying all ports, trade routes and adjacent territory. At the height of Roman expansion in the 2nd century, Roman troops controlled the entire Mediterranean basin from the great ocean of Atlas in the west to Byzantium, Antioch and Jerusalem in the east.
