Attila's defeat against Aetius in 451 and the limited success of the invasion of Italy in 452, as well as Emperor Marcian's raids into Hunnic lands, had bruised Attila's reputation as an invincible warlord. He may have already faced a political crisis after killing his brother Bleda and refusing to pick a new co-ruler, a crisis that culminated with his death in 453 AD with a widespread revolt against Hunnic rule by various Germanic leaders. Attila's son Ellac inherited his father's realm and was poised to preserve the Hunnic Empire. To do this he would have to defeat his father's lieutenants, Ardaric and Valamir...

It certainly had. The barbarian tribes had long been far more disciplined and sophisticated in their tactics by the 5th century specifically because of their interactions with the Roman empire. By 251 AD that "new breed" of barbarian had shown just how dangerous they could be when they defeated the Romans at Abritus, and in the ensuing two centuries that contact with the Romans had only gotten stronger; many barbarian leaders had fought in the legions, and and many former legionaries had joined up with their ancestral tribes as the empire frayed and the Roman government's control of the army became ever looser. There were almost certainly former legionaries in the Gepid army, either because they had deserted, or because by that point the local nobility were already forming new relationships with their local legions, and the new power structure was (predictably) unwilling to let a struggle between two major neighbouring powers take place without its involvement. ​@@saguntum-iberian-greekkons7014

So there is certainly a bit of thruth in their perception. There is also the fact that many germanic tribes already had kingdoms long before, something the romans simply never really took seriously because they tended to be rather small and less developed in comparison to the south. We just tend to not think of that time as a time of kingdoms because we know only very little about those kings and the ones we do know are the ones that lost to the romans and got killed.

Many historians in the world, like me, believe that the Romans won the battle on the “Catalan Fields”, and their victory is indicated by such obvious facts as: 1) The failed siege of the city of Orleans by the Huns, which is why they were unable to plunder it and attack another city, Toulouse. 2) The losses of the Huns in the battle were greater, which is why they retreated from Gaul, thanks to which Aetius got the spoils from the battlefield. Which became a symbol of his victory over Attila. 3) The Roman vassal Merovey became the king of the Franks, and not his older brother, who was a vassal of the Huns!

The battle of the Catalunian plain was a stalemate as a battle per se, but certainly a strategic victory for the Romans in that campaign (as Attila withdrew). If it were a defeat, then how can you explain the very successful campaign of the next year (until the plague hit of course). They even managed to capture Aquileia, a fortress considered impregnable until then and reached the gates of Rome. If not for the plague they would have raised Rome for sure.

Other information about Huns: The Huns, for example, did not occupy a homeland, but came to the Carpathian basin in a friendly alliance, which was a continuous activity of the migration of Asian peoples to Europe at that time. We Hungarians are members of a genus that ruled the steppe for a thousand years, and the Huns are more our relatives and ancestors than the Finno-Ugric peoples. According to scientists, our ancestors migrated as a result of Chinese attacks towards Europe. In Mongolia, iron ore mines and the remains of smelters have also been found next to royal tombs. This means that the Hun empire was on a par with the Chinese, Roman, and Greek cultures, which of course can be offensive to Western nations and this can be a reason, in addition to hatred, to slander the Huns and Hungarians and to falsify their history.

When charging straight forward to enemy works

Basically the son is not the father in either military ability or leadership and the collapse of the hunnic empire, provided the west with its last grasp opportunity to save itself under Majorian. A chance that they unfortunately failed to take and doomed themselves to destruction in 476.

Hungarians, Bulgarians, Chuvashes are Onogur Turks. The Hungarian chronicle the Chronicon Pictum (1358) say: Primus Ingressus-First Incoming: Attila, Secundus Ingressus-Second Incoming: Arpad
