Hunnic Empire

The book I chose for my leadership essay is The Leadership Secrets of Attila the Hun by Wess Roberts, P. This book was recommended to me by a former Ohio State University Military science professor Ret. LTC Mike Lear. Through the ages Attila the Hun has been branded as a barbarian that just leaded from fear and concurred by destroying every living thing in his path. That is far from the truth. Attila was a skilled leader that instilled many of what we would concise modern value into his Chieftain and warriors. Attila was a son of a nomadic Hun tribal King, born during the Roman empire influence on the world. Attila was a young boy of twelve when his uncle Rugila sent him as a child hostage to Rome. Attila grew up in the Roman Empire, which…

The Huns were led by Attila and his brother, but after killing his brother, Attila gained total control of the group (“The Huns”). Attila led the Huns to a prosperous, powerful, and…

Attila the Hun, the Scourge of God, was one of the most feared men to have ever been known by the Roman Empire. The nomadic tribe he lead pillaged their way across Europe, leaving destruction in their wake. The Huns were one of the most influential people in the fall of the Western Roman Empire. The Romans viewed the Huns as primitive, barbaric, and perverse. In reality, the Huns were quite skilled and intelligent people; their fighters were talented horsemen and skilled with a bow (Mark).…

four, he is better known for the beginning the downfall of The Western Roman Empire. Many also never knew that he started his rule working jointly with his brother. When I first started learning about Attila I had three questions: How did Attila come to power? What did Attila do to gain full power? And How did Attila cause the beginning of the downfall of Western Roman Empire? So I decided to answer them myself. Attila came to power through his bloodline.

There were three major factors that the Romans had fallen from their position of dominance over the world which ultimately led them to the fall of the super power known as the Roman Empire. Firstly, Rome lacked unity amongst its people as the Roman Empire had split into two sides and the rise of a major religion…

What is commonly referred to as the “fall of Rome” wasn’t at its essence a fall at all. It was a gradual decline, following years, decades, even centuries of conquering peoples and acquirement of riches.

Under his rule, Roman Empire has become stronger than ever, in terms of conquest and domination. After the successful invasion of Caesar, the territory of Roman increased humongously and the process of “Romanization” is widely spread across the land. With the domination of the Roman over the Germans, Roman citizens don’t feel the need to study the “loser” languague.…

Imperialism is defined as “the policy of extending a nation’s authority by territorial acquisition or by establishing economic and political hegemony over other nations.” As Western European powers continued to extend their empires across the world, the idea of a new imperialism would emerge between the period 1880-1914.
