Alaric
Alaric was a prominent Visigothic king during the late 4th and early 5th centuries. He is best known for leading the sack of Rome in 410 AD, a significant event that marked the first time in over 800 years the city fell to a foreign enemy. As a leader, Alaric was skilled in both military strategy and diplomacy, trying to secure land, wealth, and recognition for his people. His actions contributed to the decline of the Roman Empire, symbolizing the increasing power of barbarian tribes within its borders.
