The one thing that kept Attila the Hun from marching into Rome was the diplomatic intervention by Pope Leo I. In 452 AD, Pope Leo met with Attila and persuaded him to turn back, possibly through a combination of negotiation and the threat of divine retribution. Additionally, the Romans were preparing for a potential siege, which may have contributed to Attila's decision to retreat. This encounter marked a significant moment in the history of the Western Roman Empire.
The Huns conquered the area around Hungary. Attila forced several of the local peoples to become allies/client states. Other peoples invaded Gaul to escape the Huns. These were the Vandals, Sueve, Alands and ,possibly, the Burgundians. The Vandals raided Gaul, moved to Spain and eventually established a kingdom in Africa. The Sueves and Alans settled in Portugal and areas of Spain. The Burgundians established a kingdom in the Rhone valley area of Gaul. The Alemanni of southern Germany took advantage of this invasion to take over Switzerland, Alsace and Lorraine. Thus, Attila contributed to invasions in the Western Roman Empire, loss of lands and destabilisation of the empire. Attila also tried to invade Gaul, but was defeated and repelled by a combined army of Romans, Franks and Visigoths. Soon after this he died and his empire collapsed.

Attila, often referred to as Attila the Hun, was a prominent leader of the Huns during the 5th century. He is best known for his campaigns against the Roman Empire, where he became a significant threat to both the Western and Eastern Roman Empires. Attila's invasions and raids led to widespread devastation in Roman territories, and he was often called the "Scourge of God" due to his ferocity. His reign ended with his death in 453 AD, which contributed to the eventual decline of the Hunnic Empire.

Attila the Hun was poised to attack Rome in 452 AD, but his invasion was halted by a diplomatic mission led by Pope Leo I. The Pope is said to have met Attila outside the city and persuaded him to withdraw, possibly through a combination of negotiation and the threat of divine retribution. This encounter, along with the potential for famine and the strength of the Roman defenses, contributed to Attila's decision to turn back. Consequently, Rome was spared from destruction, and Attila retreated to his territory in the East.
