Frankish Kingdom (The Last Roman) Missile Infantry

Frankish Skirmishers

The Franks were originally a group of Germanic tribes, formed along the Rhine frontier, who, in the 3rd century AD, migrated westwards to settle in Gaul and as far south as northern Hispania. Although technically a barbarian incursion which they at first resisted, Rome eventually recognised the new Frankish kingdom in around AD357. In return, many Franks fought alongside the Roman army as foederati after that date. Observing the Franks, the Roman historian Sidonius Apollinaris spoke of a love of fighting bred into their young from an early age, stating "it is their sport to send axes hurling through the vast void and know beforehand where the blow will fall, to whirl their shields, to outstrip with leaps and bounds the spears they have hurled, and reach the enemy first".
