388 CE to 531 CE

After further advances, the Vandals make an agreement with Rome in 435 to limit their control to Numidia and Mauretania, but in 439 Genseric conquers and pillages Carthage and the rest of the province of Africa.

The resulting decline in trade weakens Roman control.

Independent kingdoms emerge in mountainous and desert areas, towns are overrun, and Berbers, who had previously been pushed to the edges of the Roman Empire, return.
