Visigothic Kingdom
Sign in to saveAlso known as Regnum Gothorum, Kingdom of the Goths
Period of Germanic rule on the Iberian Peninsula (418–720) as a successor state to the Western Roman Empire.
The Visigothic Kingdom was a Germanic state that ruled over the Iberian Peninsula (modern-day Spain and Portugal) for about 300 years, from 418 to 720, after the Western Roman Empire collapsed. It matters because it represents an important bridge between the Roman world and medieval Europe, showing how Germanic peoples took over and transformed Roman territories during the early medieval period.
