Visigothic Kingdom or the Kingdom of the Visigoths (Latin: Regnum Visigothorum) was a

kingdom that occupied what is now southwestern France and the Iberian Peninsula from the

5th to the 8th centuries. One of the Germanic successor states to the Western Roman
Empire, it was originally created by the settlement of the Visigoths under King Wallia in the
province of Gallia Aquitania in southwest Gaul by the Roman government and then extended
by conquest over all of Hispania. The Kingdom maintained independence from the Eastern
Roman or Byzantine Empire, whose attempts to re-establish Roman authority in Hispania
were only partially successful and short-lived. Visigothic Kingdom or the Kingdom of the
