	Braga - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		During the times of the Germanic Invasions of the Iberian Peninsula, Roman power was dissolved and Bracara Augusta and the whole region of Gallaecia fell into the hands of the Sueves, a Germanic people from Central Europe.
		In 410, the Sueves established a Kingdom in the Northwest of Iberia and chose Bracara as capital.
		In the 6th century a great figure was Saint Martin of Braga, a bishop of Braga who converted the Sueves from Arianism to Catholicism.

	Suebi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Catholicism became official to the pagan Suebi and mostly Priscillianist population base, just to convert to Arianism few years later, under the rule of Remismund and to revert back to Catholicism again by the middle of the next century.
		In 456 Rechiarius died after being defeated by the Visigoth king Theodoric II, and the Sueve glory began to fade.
		The Sueve kingdom got cornered to the hostile northwest and political division arose across the river Minius (Minho or Miño) with two different kings ruling in both sides of the river.

	2. The Visigoths. 2001. The Encyclopedia of World History
		The Rhine frontier, denuded of troops for the defense of Italy, was crossed by a great wave of migrants, chiefly eastern Germans: Vandals, Sueves, and Alans (non-German).
		This translation, the first literary monument of the German invaders, had enormous influence and recalls the wide extent of the Arian heresy, which won every important Germanic invader except the Franks, a development with the greatest political consequences, since the lands where the Germans settled were peopled by orthodox Roman Catholics.
		Wallia planned to cross to the African granary but lost his ships; he was forced to make terms with Honorius and restore Galla Placidia to her brother.

	Visigothic and Vandal Names
		Various Germanic groups began to dominate Spain in 409 A.D. In that year the Alans, Sueves, and Vandals crossed the Pyrenees and took most of Spain from the Romans.
		The Visigoths forced the Sueves into Gallaecia in northwestern Spain.
		By the mid-470s, the Visigoths took the last Roman strongholds in modern Catalonia and the Ebro valley.

	Chapter 4: Pagan Survivals in Galicia in the Sixth Century
		We are rather well informed about pagan survivals in the Galician kingdom of the Sueves in the second half of the sixth century because of the determined efforts to uproot paganism made by St. Martin of Braga.
		The Sueves, as far as is known, were pagans when they entered Spain, and thus a new form of paganism, the Germanic, was to trouble the Peninsula.
		There is no mention of the religion of the Sueves in the extant writings of the first four centuries, nor in the chronicle of Idacius, our principal authority for the history of Spain during the fifth century.

	Conclusion
		The Sueves were pagan upon their entry into Spain and doubtless many of the rank and file of the Arian Visigoths had but a thin veneer of Christianity.
		In the kingdom which the Sueves founded in Galicia in 464 Arianism was the State religion, and, as in Visigothic Spain during the [149] Arian period, the rulers were out of sympathy with, if not openly antagonistic toward their Catholic subjects.
		It was only after the Sueves and Goths had embraced Catholicism that any successful efforts could be made against the paganism that still survived.

		Originally, we determined that it was between 6 and 9 but it definitely wasn't 7 or 8 but as the trip progressed, sueves took on multiple meanings.

	Aeminium - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Romans founded the town of Aeminium in this place, which came under the protection of nearby Conímbriga situated some 15km away to the south.
		The Sueves razed the nearby township of Conímbriga in 468.
		Its inhabitants who had meanwhile fled to Aeminium finally adopted and adapted the name.

	ARIEL, Part Two
		With the Sueves on one side and the Vandals on the other, he had slowly reasoned that this river must form a kind of uneasy boundary between them.
		Perhaps a few Sueves had escaped into the stone hills around them, but the battle was at least a day old, and he was not afraid of stragglers.
		His estimation was that two hundred fighting men had stormed the pass held by the Sueves, a good-sized clan, but still only one of perhaps forty that now controlled northern and central Spain.

		After the withdrawal of Attila the Hun and the subsequent collapse of the Hun empire, the decline of the western Roman empire continued.
		The Visigoths ceased to be federates (allies within the empire) and instead became an independent kingdom, expanding across southern Gaul and across all of Hispania, but for that occupied by the Sueves and the native Basque population in the north.
		The hostile Vandals began to dominate the Mediterranean Sea, using their naval supremacy to capture the Balearic Islands as well as Sardinia and Corsica.

		The Alans occupied the country at the foot of the Pyrenees, but were soon after subdued by the Visigoths.
		The Sueves settled in the northwest of Spain, but met the same fate as the Alans.
		The Vandals occupied the southern part, and from there crossed over to Africa, where they maintained themselves for nearly a century, and at one time were powerful enough, as we shall see, to capture Rome itself.

	Decline and Fall of the Roman Empires
		Meanwhile, the Sueves, Vandals and other Germans had crossed the Rhine in 406, and the Gallic provinces rebelled under the usurper Constantine from Britain.
		The Emperor Honorius persuaded the Visigoths to leave Italy and in 418 were given a new home in Aquitaine in return for restoring most of Spain to the Empire.
		He was assassinated in 454, and this led to the second sack of Rome, by the Vandals, in 455.

	The Vandals - History for Kids!
		The Vandals first entered the collapsing Roman Empire in the winter of 409 AD, when they crossed the frozen Rhine river with a group of Alans and Sueves.
		The Vandals (with the Alans and Sueves) slowly travelled south through Gaul (France), looting and fighting as they went.
		When they reached the Pyrenees mountains that separate France from Spain, they were actually invited into Spain by one of the rebel leaders, in exchange for helping him with his rebellion.

		The Burgundians were settled in north west of the Alps as federates.
		The Sueves settled in the northwest of Hispania, the Franks moved across the Rhine and Britons descended across the sea to settle in the northwestern tip of Gaul.
		But worst of all the hostile Vandals had lodged themselves in northern Africa, the Libyan and Mauretanian territories they failed to control falling back into the hands of native tribes.

	Fall of Rome - History for Kids!
		The Burgundians had already taken over eastern France, and the Vandals and Sueves were in Spain (the Alans got wiped out).
		This left the Sueves alone in Spain, and the Visigoths gradually began taking over parts of Spain.
		The Picts and other groups invaded England, and the English wrote to the Romans for help, but the Romans said they were on their own.

	Chapter 5: Pagan Survivals in Visigothic Spain
		The history of this period, as told in the Chronicle of Idacius, which [109] ends in 468, is filled with the description of the raids made by the barbarian Vandals, Sueves and Visigoths.
		Nor did the Visigoths after their defeat of the Sueves in 456 and their gradual conquest of southern and eastern Spain take any active measures against paganism.
		After the conversion of the Sueves and Goths to Catholicism, however, there is mention in the Church councils of the churches built by the wealthy people of Spain.

	Historian
		In January 409 AD, a lot of Alans, Vandals, and Sueves crossed the Rhine (which was frozen solid) and came into the Roman Empire.
		There were no troops there to stop them, so they just travelled around France taking whatever they wanted.
		In order to get a good-sized army together, Gerontius seems to have agreed to let the Alans, Vandals, and Sueves into Spain, and they promised to help him out.

		However, in autumn 409, Spain was invaded by the Vandals, Alans and Sueves, three barbarian groups that had crossed the Rhine from Germany a couple of years earlier.
		From there, the Vandals spread along the coast, and captured Carthage in 439, thus completing their conquest of North Africa.
		They left Spain to the Sueves, and it largely came back under Roman control.

		Sigebert says this happened in the invasion of Chrocus, the German king, under Gallien; but Tillemont thinks it rather ought to be placed in 411, when the Alans, Sueves, and Vandals plundered that country.

		The group that settled in Germany were also the ancestors of the Franks, Vandals and Sueves.
		The German people had little ethnic solidarity and by the seventh century BC, they began a division into many peoples.

		And the rest of Gaul was starting to fall under the sway of what would eventually become the most successful of these tribes, the Franks.
		In addition, there were various minor tribes scattered throughout the West trying to carry on an independent existence: Burgundians, Lombards, Heruls, Gepids, Alans, Sueves, and so on.
		Traditionally historians have described the centuries following Rome’s fall as a barbaric and chaotic period known as the Dark Ages.
