In 376, the Empire was flooded with unmanageable numbers of Goths and other non-Romans escaping the Huns. After winning two catastrophic civil wars, Theodosius I died in 395, leaving behind a declining field army and an Empire still plagued by Goths, divided between his two inept sons' feuding ministers.
