What attracts you to Late Rome?

[Flavivs Aetivs]

That's very interesting, and although I think the xiongnu had a part to play in the formation of the Huns, I still don't think the huns were directly related to them.

What's interesting though is the co-relation between Chinese, Roman, and Sassanid records about the area around the Aral sea and the migrations taking place in central asia.
