They displaced the Scythians and conquered Sogdiana and Khorasan before 425. They crossed (425) the Syr Darya (Jaxartes) River and invaded Persia. Held off at first by Bahram Gur, they later (483-85) succeeded in making Persia tributary. After a series of wars (503-13) they were driven out of Persia, permanently lost the offensive, and were finally (557) defeated by Khosru I. The White Huns also invaded India and succeeded in extending their domain to include the Ganges valley. They temporarily overthrew the Gupta empire but were eventually driven out of India in 528 by a Hindu coalition. Although in Persia they had little effect, in India the White Huns influenced society by altering the caste system and disrupting the hierarchy of the ruling families.

Did the Huns ever take over China?
Yes, the Huns had a major impact on the Northern and Northwestern regions of China. They invaded and conquered these areas. The Chinese called the Huns the Xiongnu, hense the name for the first capital of a unified China which was named Xion. I've been to this ancient city and it's very impressive with it's thick walls that stretch for 14 miles. Eventually, the Huns assimilated into Chinese Han culture and their territory separated into a Northern and Southern Kingdom whereby they were no longer a unified people. After this transition took place the Huns who lived in the Northern Kingdom who hadn't assimilated into the Chinese Han population and culture began to expand their empire Westward into Europe.

Why were Germans called huns in World War I?
Kaiser Wilhelm II liked to make outrageous speeches without getting advice beforehand. On 27 July 1900 he gave a speech to German troops about to set sail for China in order to help (together with other powers) to suppress the Boxer Rebellion. Towards the end he urged the men to be 'like the Huns' and to make sure that no Chinese would ever again 'dare to pull a face at a German'. The speech caused the German government embarrassment at the time. In World War 1 it became a gift to British and French propagandists.

Actually, Atilla may have been a drawf. He was tall for a dwarf, but stocky and powerfully built, and intimidating. His other features were typical of the Hun, who were Asiatic and related to the Mongols, rather than Germanic as is still believed.

What are other names for Attila the Hun's army?
his army: their called the Hunarians by other nations. but by the frightened people he attacked, his army had nicknames like the "the devils of europe" "the gods neglected runners" "the unknown demons" and "the barbaric slayers of rome" were some of the names they got due to their raping and killin of people
He was savage and barbaric, but there was an article that says he was a forgiving person. An example is, when a man bribed (Attila) head guard to assassinate him, the person who was sent to assassinate him was caught. The person who hired the murderer was found by Attila and he was forgiven. That shows Attila is a peaceful and forgiving person.
Yes... but to his other traitors he would shove a wooden stake through the traitors rectum and had the pole balanced there for 2 days in which the traitor was slowly and gruesomely impaled. Also he went to a church, not to pray, but to behead a bishop. He is NOT peaceful but a horrible, terrified person.
