The Role of the Roman Army in the Political Instability in the West in the 5th century CE
SEKANINOVÁ, Markéta
This thesis follows a period between 395 - 476 AD and aims to refer to the connection of political stability and the state of the Roman army in the very last century of the Western Roman Empire's existence. This will be done by research of individual usurpers in the 5th century because most of them come from the Roman army. The thesis will further analyse the connection of said stability with migrations of Germanic tribes and their brunt on the West through the barbarization of the Roman army. A question of why the political development in the East was more stable and why the Western Roman Empire perished in the process of the 5th century will also be examined.
