King of the Visigoths 484-507
After succeeding to the throne of his dead father King Euric, Alaric II proved to be a weak king. In 486 he surrendered to Clovis I, King of the Franks, Syagrius, the last Roman general in Gaul. As Alaric was an Arian, Clovis had justification for making war. In 507, he and King Gundobad of the Burgundians attacked and defeated him. As a result, Clovis gained all of Aquitaine, reducing the land of the Visigoths to Spain. He was succeeded by his young son Amalaric, and Theodoric the Great, King of the Ostrogoths, was the one who ruled the kingdom in reality until 526.
