Theodoric I
Theodoric I (; (ドイツ語:Theodorid or Theodorich); (ラテン語:Theodericus); died in 451 AD), called in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian ''Teodorico'', was the Germanic King of the Visigoths from 418 to 451 AD. An illegitimate son of Alaric, Theodoric is famous for his part in defeating Attila at the Battle of the Catalaunian Plains in 451, where he was killed.
==Early career==
In 418 he succeeded King Wallia. The Romans had ordered King Wallia to move his people from Iberia to Gaul. As king, Theodoric completed the settlements of the Visigoths in Gallia Aquitania II, Novempopulana and Gallia Narbonensis, and then used the declining power of the Roman Empire to extend his territory to the south.
After the death of Emperor Honorius and the usurpation of Joannes in 423 internal power struggles broke out in the Roman Empire. Theodoric used this situation and tried to capture the important road junction Arelate, but the Magister militum Aëtius, who was assisted by the Huns, was able to save the city.〔Prosper, ''Epitoma chronicon'' 1290, in: MGH Auctores antiquissimi (AA) 9, p. 471; ''Chronica Gallica of 452'', 102, in: MGH AA 9, p. 658; Sidonius Apollinaris, ''letters'' 7. 12. 3〕
The Visigoths concluded a treaty and were given Gallic noblemen as hostages. The later Emperor Avitus visited Theodoric, lived at his court and taught his sons.〔Sidonius Apollinaris, ''carmen'' 7. 215sqq.; 7. 495sqq.〕
