After the battle of Adrianople in 378 CE, the Roman Empire met the Goths' demands for food and land in order to restore peace. This agreement was known as the Treaty of Verdun, and it allowed the Goths to settle within the Roman Empire as long as they provided military service in exchange. While the battle itself was a Gothic victory over the Romans, the peace agreement afterwards allowed for a peaceful coexistence between the two groups.
