Ancient History Fangirl: How an Empire Ends, Rome's Gothic Immigrants

An episode of Ancient History Fangirl. One that I, Liv, really want you all to hear. This story isn’t just about Goths that lived outside Rome. It’s also about the Goths that lived inside the Empire—as everything from slaves to soldiers to free citizens. How they were treated within that empire fueled and fed the wheel of the Migration era. Hatred of immigrants played a major role in Migration-Era conflicts–in ways scarily similar to events today. Get the show notes here. Listen to all the episode on How An Empire Ends via this Spotify playlist. Find more from Ancient History Fangirl here. Find more information on Jenny's novel which is featured at the end (and is an amazing romance novel featuring the dying Roman Empire as the Big Bad).
