This book examines the age of Attila, roughly the fifth century CE,
an era in which western Eurasia experienced significant
geopolitical and cultural changes. The Roman Empire collapsed in
western Europe, replaced by new 'barbarian' kingdoms, but it
continued in Christian Byzantine guise in the eastern
Mediterranean. New states and peoples changed the face of northern
Europe, while in Iran, the Sasanian Empire developed new theories
of power and government. At the same time, the great Eurasian
steppe became a permanent presence in the European world. This book
treats Attila, the notorious king of the Huns, as both an agent of
change and a symbol of the wreck of the old world order.
