In about 387 BC a people called the Gauls attacked Rome and took over they city.
Soldiers from the Senone Tribe of the Gauls (who were from Marche, on the east coast of Central Italy) sacked Rome, but did not take it over. They left after Rome agreed to pay 1,000 pounds of Gold. It is thought that they were mercenaries hired by Hierro of Syracuse (in Sicily) on their way south to Calabria (the toe of Italy) to fight there. They were interested in booty and ransom, not in taking over.
The date of the Gallic sack is uncertain. 390 BC and 387 BC are two possible dates. Historians tend to settle for 390 BC.

In 1200 BC Rome did not even exist. Rome was founded in 753 BC. The Roman Empire developed even later that that. Rome expanded into central Italy as as result of the Second and Third Samnite Wars (326-304 BC and 298-290 BC). She started to expand beyond Italy as a result of the Second Punic War (218-201 BC) Perhaps you are referring to the Hittites, who ruled the part of the world where Turkey is today. The Hittites battled the Egyptians and the Assyrians, but many sources say it was some Indo-European armies, including the Bryges and the Phrygians, who attacked and defeated them. By around 1200, the Hittite empire was gone.
The Gauls were, led by Brennus, after the Battle of Allia in 387 B.C.
