What did the Romans call the tribes vandals Ostrogoth's and Visigoths?

The Romans referred to the Vandals, Ostrogoths, and Visigoths as "barbarians," a term used for various non-Roman tribes that were perceived as uncivilized. Each of these groups was recognized for their distinct cultures and territories; for example, the Vandals were known for their naval prowess in the Mediterranean, while the Ostrogoths and Visigoths were associated with significant migrations and conflicts with the Roman Empire. The Romans often categorized these tribes based on their geographic locations and military actions against Roman territories.

What did the Vandals to to the Romans when they captured modern day Spain?

The Vandals stayed in southern Spain for only 20 years. Then they moved on to Africa because of the arrival of the Visigoths. The Vandals did not actually capture Spain. They controlled only Andalusia in the south. They had reached Spain with the two other peoples who had crossed into Gaul with them: the Sueves and the Alans. Alan Kingdom was much bigger than the area controlled by the Vandals. It covered Lusitania (most of Portugal), part of central Spain (in the present day regions of Extremadura and Castile La Mancia) and the regions of Valencia and Murcia, on the southeastern coast. The Sueves established the Kingdom of Gallaecia (northwest Spain and northern Portugal). The Romans still controlled the north, much of central Spain and the eastern coast. The Vandals were Roman allies while they were in Spain. When the Visigoths invaded Spain, they attacked the Alans and killed their king. The Alans asked the Vandal king to take the Alan crown. Most of the Alans moved to Africa with the Vandals.

Why did the zealots attack the Romans?

The Zealots didn't attack the Romans. The Romans were going to attack but all the Zealots killed themselves. Over 960 children, men and woman died. Now, that's a different story. They believe the Romans attacked, or were going to attack, because the Zealots would, in a way, pull pranks on the Romans. The Romans got tired of living over 1,000 feet below the Zealots because it also gave the Zealots a advantage at numerous things.Hoped this helped!:)
