Land for Loyalty
With boundaries literally set in stone, each man can be sure of what is his.As late antiquity eclipsed the Western Roman Empire, and it faded from existence, the invading barbarian tribes from the north found themselves heirs to the remnants of Roman establishment. Although fragmentary and no longer ruled as a unified state, the tribes now inhabiting Italy adopted many of the former Empire's structures and societies, and the nobles of its Senate, in governance. Theoderic the Great, king of the Ostrogoths, saw that many administrative offices were filled by his own men, including the philosopher Boethius as his Magister Officiorum. In this manner, the king slowly wore away the claims to power of rival families so appeasing him became their chief concern. This ensured that his title remained safeguarded from cloying, usurping hands.
