Germanic peoples, such as the Visigoths, Vandals, and Ostrogoths, overran the Western Roman Empire in the 5th century CE.

After they combined, the Vikings divided off the northern part into a kingdom called the Danelaw. Spain consisted of the kingdoms of the Sueves and Visigoths at the beginning of the Middle Ages. The Visigoths conquered the Sueves. But they were conquered by Moors.

The list seems endless.
