| Summary | "Histoire d'Attila et de ses successeurs" by Amédée Thierry is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. This work delves into the legacy of Attila the Hun, focusing on the subsequent rise of the Avars and their impact on Europe until the establishment of the Hungarians. Reflecting on the interplay between ancient peoples and empires, the text illustrates the complexities of power dynamics in the post-Attila era. The opening of the book introduces readers to the second Hunnic Empire under the leadership of Baïan, highlighting the socio-political structures of the Avars and their interactions with neighboring tribes, including the Franks and Slavs. It details Baïan's early campaigns, showcasing his character, ambitions, and brutal tactics in wars against the Roman Empire, and the significant shifts in alliances. As the narrative unfolds, the historical consequences of Baïan's conquests and the underlying themes of power, tragedy, and ambition begin to emerge, setting the stage for further exploration of this tumultuous period in history.
