The invasions of the Roman Empire were carried out by Germanic peoples who lived north of the western part of the Roman Empire and were seeking new lands further south. Being further east, the eastern part of he Roman Empire was not affected by these migratory movements. However, over time after the fall of the western part , this part of the empire was suffered invasions (by the Arabs, Slavs and Turks) and eventually lost all of its lands.
The invasions by the Germanic peoples precipitated the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire. They eventually took over all of its lands. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by these invasions and continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years.
The western part of the empire fell under the weight of the invasions by the Germanic peoples. The Romans lost political cohesion and fought each other instead of confronting the rebellions. An effective emperor who had made headway against the invaders was deposed and executed in a power struggle. There were king makers and usurpers and the turnover of emperors was high. In the end the western part of the Roman Empire lost all of its lands.
The term fall of Rome refers to the fall of the western part of the Roman Empire (the eastern part continued to exist for nearly 1,000 years). The fall of the western part of the Roman Empire was a process. Many factors contributed to this. The main one was the invasions by Germanic peoples (Vandals, Alans, Sueves and Burgundians). This part of the empire crumbled under the weight of these invasions. It lost political cohesion. There was a lot of infighting and a string of usurpations. The Romans were unable to respond to the invasions. Within some eighty years all the lands of this part of the empire were lost. Many historians think that prior to the fall of this part of the empire there was a decline of the Roman Empire as a whole.
