📘 This discussion is based on 52 source books.

The sources provide a comprehensive overview of the history, culture, and politics of the Gothic peoples, focusing especially on the Ostrogothic and Visigothic branches. A significant portion explores the cultural evolution of the Goths in Eastern Europe, documented by the archaeological record of the Cherniakhov culture, and their subsequent migration and interaction with the Roman Empire, culminating in pivotal events such as the Battle of Adrianople. The excerpts also detail the administration of the Gothic kingdoms, such as Theodoric's attempt to harmonize Gothic and Roman governmental structures in Italy, and the consolidation of the Visigothic kingdom in Hispania, including the conversion to Catholicism at the Third Council of Toledo and the founding of new cities such as Recopolis. Furthermore, the sources address the wars and political intrigues of the Visigothic kings (such as Alaric, Euric, Leovigild, and Wamba), the Norse origins and Gothic religious beliefs, and the importance of historians such as Jordanes and Casiodorus to the Gothic narrative.
