The Huns
The Huns were a nomadic peoples that originally lived their lives on the steppes of the
far east as farmers. When these tribes
combined the resulting army was a destructive force that could easily attack and if
necessary retreat anywhere. In 316AD, the Huns invaded Northern China. These raids
eventually led to the construction of the Great Wall of China. This large Nomadic force
made its way west invading India and Persia in the year 350AD. In 370AD the Huns
appeared in Europe for the first time. They came upon the Goths who were attacked and
defeated. The Ostrogoths became part of the Hun army and the Visigoths were driven into
Roman territory starting the first Barbarian invasions.
