The Huns (374 – 454 AD)
Nomadic and pastoral people of unknown ethnological affinities who originated in N central Asia, appeared in Europe in the 4th cent. A.D. ,
and built up an empire there. They were organized in a predominantly military manner.
Divided into hordes, they undertook extensive independent campaigns, living off the countries they ravaged.
The Huns have been described as short and of somewhat Mongolian appearance.
Their military superiority was due to their superior bows and their small,
rapid horses, on which they practically lived, even eating and negotiating treaties on horseback.

Due to the short but very dynamic bows and they small and fast horses, the Huns was very fast and deadly force again every enemy.
