The Goths, however, remained in the heart of the empire, and their presence was a constant source of danger and alarm. They were no longer the rude barbarians who had first crossed the Danube; they had learned the arts of war and the policy of the Romans, and they were ready to take advantage of any opportunity to assert their independence. - [Previous: c5.s2.166](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.geography.dey-1899.c5.s2.166) - [Next: c5.s2.168](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.geography.dey-1899.c5.s2.168) - [Up: c5.s2](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.geography.dey-1899.c5.s2) --- Source: [https://indike.org/pramana/ins.geography.dey-1899.c5.s2.167](https://indike.org/pramana/ins.geography.dey-1899.c5.s2.167) · Pramāṇa
