So there's a solid gold casket, inside a silver casket in an iron casket, with Atilla the Hun's body in it, somewhere in a riverbed in the old Hun Empire. I want to find it

Attila gave up on his final attack on Rome because too many teenage girls were signing petitions

"The greatest of all Warriors should be mourned not with tears or the wailing of women, but the blood of men".... dude... thats so metal!

Imagine having the nickname "The Scourge of God."
That is one of the most terrifying things I've ever heard a person be called.

In the empire he ruled, they called him Attila the fun

Seems like every fall of a nation is from the accounting department.

It never surprised me that The Goths died out.
Sitting around, listening to Bauhaus all day while smoking cloves leaves you quite open for enemies to attack.

Imagine if Simon and Lucy Worsley some how had a child.. the kid would narrate it’s own birth.

You have recruited so many units, the treasury is buckling under the weight of their upkeep.
Capturing new territory would spread the cost, as well as putting your troops to good use!

Flavius Aetius spent his early military career as hostage/advisor of both the Visigoths and then the Huns, he was no fool, in fact his rank of military governor of Gaul was due to him using a Hunnic army to press his agenda. Again, he was no fool.

Pretty sure Genghis Khan was the reincarnation of this guy.

When you say goths i just imagine an army of emos...

A lot of similarities between the Mongols and the Huns. Both excelled at shooting arrows from horseback.

"Flagellum Dei" actually translates to God's Whip.
Less the scourge of god, more so a punishment sent by God, much like flagellation was a punishment from those you wronged.
Attila wasn't a scourge. He was a force that could only be sent by God himself.
Because who else could create something so divinely destructive?
