Let's say the Huns never went west toward Europe (they move to China, India, or Persia) and the Sassanid dynasty never established.
So in this ATL Germanic tribes stay in Germania and Persia dissolved into some small, independent kingdoms...and then what will happen to Roman Empire...?
Would Germanic tribes gradually evolved into some Germanic kingdoms? How about Slavic tribes? What would be the relationship between those "barbaric" tribes with the Romans?
Was it impossible to prevent any dynasty to take over the whole Persia? Could the Persian kingdoms survived (at least until the arrival of Arabs or Mongols)? If the Huns never invade Europe, what would happen to other steppe tribes? (Avars, Magyars, etc)
And the most important question of all, without the presence of migrating 'barbaric' tribes desperately trying to found places to be settled, and without the threat posed by strong, centralized empire in Persia, would the Roman Empire ever fall...?
And what would happen when the Arabs, Norse, Turks, and Mongols came...?
Did I ask too much? :D
