The Germanic peoples who invaded the western part of the Roman Empire where migrating peoples who were looking for new lands to settle in because of a population squeeze in central Europe. The eastern part of the Roman Empire was not affected by these invasions.

Many of the Germanic tribes began invading the Roman empire in order to gain territory as they were being pushed from their traditional homelands by other tribes from the east such as the Huns who in turn were being pushed by other eastern tribes such as the Mongols. This population shift occurred when the Roman empire was weak and vulnerable.

It was a time of population shift. The Germanic tribes were being displaced from their homelands by other peoples from the east.
