A proposito di questo titolo

We all know the story: barbarians sacked Rome, the empire fell. But what if the 'barbarians' were already inside the gates—not just literally, but culturally and politically? In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the overlooked role of the foederati, the barbarian allies who became the backbone of the late Roman army. They unpack the fateful Battle of Adrianople in 378 CE, where Gothic refugees defeated and killed Emperor Valens, and trace how the empire's desperate reliance on foreign troops slowly transformed its identity. Along the way, they meet figures like the Gothic chieftain Fritigern and the Roman general Stilicho—himself half-Vandal—and consider how the line between Roman and barbarian blurred until it vanished. Was Rome's fall a conquest from without, or a transformation from within? This episode offers a fresh take on an old question, grounded in military and political history.
