Rome sacked/Falls to Barbarians

in 410 the a group of barbarians called the Visigoths led by barbarian king aralic who has experience in roman combat and defence tactics attempted to capture Rome they started not by killing but by cutting of Romes food supply one of the main reasons they wanted to sack Rome is for food because they were getting hungry once they have been cutting of the supply line to Rome the Romans continued to have games in the Colosseum but they were starving and some people even turned to cannibalism so they let the Visigoths in and once they came in they stared stealing everything and killing every one in site once they left Rome completely unable to take care of itself they moved south and Alaric died shortly afterwards Rome never recovered and the entire continent of Europe fell into the dark ages.
