Years: 388 - 531
Two Germanic tribes, the Vandals and the Suevi, cross the Rhine in 405 and ravage Gaul until the Visigoths drive them into Spain.
The Suevi establish a kingdom in the remote northwestern corner of the Iberian Peninsula.
The hardier Vandals, never exceeding eighty thousand, occupy the region that bears their name—Andalusia (Spanish, Andalucia).
