Systematic Ransacking
"Sorry, slip of the tongue. Your money AND your life."For the nomadic and barbarian tribes, migration was an integral part of their lives. When summer passed into autumn and winter, so too would the tribes move to a warmer climate where they could continue to live and thrive. Then, when the spring returned, they would move on once again. Late antiquity, however, brought with it plummeting global temperatures combined with population levels reaching all-time highs, so migration became a more desperate and permanent affair. Before the shifting weather forced their flight, however, tribal warbands advocated transhumanism, ostensibly so that livestock would always have fresh grazing, but also so the nomads themselves could find new lands and cultures to raid and pillage. The Huns, in particular, made a move towards the Danube, not for reasons of residence, but to be nearer to the spectacular wealth of the Roman Empire.
