\"The Vandals invaded Gaul in 406 where they engaged in warfare with the Franks. By 409 AD they were settled on the western side of the Pyrenees as foederati of the Roman Empire. The Vandals were not destined for peace in Gaul. The Roman Emperor encouraged the Visigoth tribe led by the chieftan, Wallia, to attack the Vandals and the Alans and Swabians, two other Germanic tribes that had entered Gaul. The Vandals crossed the Straits of Gibraltar in 429 and captured most of the Roman Empire\'s strongholds in northern Africa. They would, in 455, capture and sack Rome, but then in 533 Emperor Justinian would destroy the Vandal kingdom established in northern Africa.\"
