I've seen a few threads where the Huns under Attila tried to unite the Roman Empire under his control, but I'm not sure if they're continued. So here's the question: could Attila be persuaded to create a Hunnic Empire on the ruins of the Eastern Roman Empire without uniting the two Roman Empires? I mean, Attila could adopt Byzantine customs, institutions and religion while trying his luck with conquering the rest of the Eastern empire. Another thing that may of help: creating a possible analogue to the First Bulgarian Empire with the Magyars (Khazarian raids splitting Magyar superstate into Pannonian Hungary and Volga Hungary, kinda like Bulgaria and Volga Bulgaria), and be in position to influence the Slavs.
