1 jan 452 ano - Attila the Hun invaded Italy

Descrição:

stayed out of Rome as request of PopeLeo I

Despite the failed campaign into Gaul, Attila launched an attack on Italy the very next year in 452. He sacked both Milan and Aquileia (among other places) but reportedly decided to pull back after meeting with Pope Leo I.

In A.D. 453, Attila died in bed – supposedly due to a nosebleed caused by a brain hemorrhage – after a heavy feast and drinking on his wedding night to new bride Ildico.

Attila sacked more than 70 cities in total throughout his whole run through different countries
