Following the death of Theodosius in 395 A.D., the incompetent leadership of his son Honorius leads to the sacking of Rome by Alaric and the subsequent disintegration of society. The narrative highlights the emergence of the Franks, the consolidation of Charlemagne's empire, and the Viking incursions that reshaped the continent.
