The Franks' motivation in conquering Gaul was primarily driven by the desire for land, resources, and power. As a Germanic tribe, they sought to expand their territory and establish dominance over the region. The weakening of the Roman Empire provided an opportune moment for the Franks to assert their influence and consolidate their control over the prosperous territories of Gaul. Additionally, unifying the Frankish tribes under a single ruler, such as Clovis, aimed to enhance their strength and stability in the face of external threats.

Did the Franks conquer Gaul in 480 AD or 480 BC?
The "Franks" never conquered Gaul...they lived there. You see, there were many Germanic tribes living in Gaul, which is ancient France and parts of Germany, Austria, etc. Certain tribes conquered and integrated other tribes, so you could say they conquered it, except that everyone was a Frank. In 480 B.C., It was extremely underdeveloped, so no conquering anything. In 480 A.D., the Western Roman Empire collapsed, which might be what you are asking, about, not sure. But anyways, the answer is "neither", because the Franks were a Culture Group, and the Tribes in Gaul and Germania were subgoups of the same general blend, if you understand what Im saying. Hope this answered your question satisfactorily enough
