438 AD

The year 438 AD was a time of significant change, notably in the Roman Empire and surrounding regions. It saw the establishment of the Kingdom of the Visigoths in what is now Spain, following their settlement after previous conflicts. The Western Roman Empire was weakening, facing internal struggles and external invasions. In Egypt, the Coptic Christian community was growing, and theological debates continued. Throughout 438 AD, these political and religious shifts contributed to the broader transformations that shaped medieval Europe and the Mediterranean world.
