The Ripuarian Franks and the Chatti raid …
Years: 420 - 420
The Ripuarian Franks and the Chatti raid across the middle Rhine frontier during the first quarter of the fifth century.
The Franks, taking advantage of the overstrained Roman defenses, solidify their hold on present Belgium and assume permanent control of the lands immediately west of the middle Rhine River.
The legendary Pharamond is said to have led the Franks across the Rhine, and to have recolonized the old town of Duisburg (Germany).
