Explanation: During the Migration Period, hundreds-of-thousands of Germanic tribesmen flooded into the Roman Empire, on the run from political disruption caused by foreign nomad incursions (like the Huns) as well as climate change.

Whenever the Roman Empire was reluctant to let them in, the Germanics made it very clear that they were not just politely asking.
