Solution

Rome was sacked twice in the 5th century A.D. by the Visigoths and the Vandals.

Here's a brief step-by-step explanation:

  1. The first sack of Rome took place in 410 A.D. by the Visigoths led by King Alaric. The Visigoths were a branch of the Goths, a Germanic people who played a major role in the fall of the Western Roman Empire.

  2. The second sack of Rome occurred in 455 A.D. by the Vandals led by their King Genseric. The Vandals were also a Germanic people, and they established a kingdom in North Africa that was a significant player in the Mediterranean during the 5th century.

The Byzantines and the Ottomans, the Huns and Slavs, and the Ostrogoths did have significant interactions with the Roman Empire, but they were not the ones who sacked Rome in the 5th century A.D.
