I thought I'd just jump the gun here and make the thread, since we only have one going at the moment. And as the two are in the same region, having both at once could be beneficial. Balancing, gameplay mechanics, etc. Territories. Apologies if this was incorrect.
The Vandals were one of the people of the great barbarian migrations of the 4th and 5th centuries. Identified as two distinct groups, the Silingi and the Hasdingi, they crossed into the Roman Empire in 401/402, already Christianised. By 406 they and their allies the Alans and Suebi had crossed into Gaul, sacking much of Aquitania as they worked towards Iberia. In 409 they crossed the Pyrenees, and recieved lands in Hispania as foederati. But they were not finished. In 429 they crossed into Africa with their king Gaiseric, sacking Carthage and taking it as their capital in 439. In 455 they sacked Rome. Following the death of Gaiseric in 477, the kingdom began a slow decline, torn by religious divisions. In 533, the kingdom was destroyed by Belisarius, the right hand man of Emperor Justinian.
