In 251, after killing the Roman emperor in battle and winning a decisive victory at abritus, king Cniva teams up with Priscus to establish an independent state in Thrace, Dacia, and possibly Moesia, where goths, vandals, and other tribes across the Danube could settle.
How would this new barbarian state affect Rome? How long would it realistically have been able to survive? Could it have triggered an early fall of rome? To me this concept is interesting and I might do a TL on it, but I want to hear some opinions on how plausible it is and what might happen first.
