In OTL Eastern Emperor Theodosius II accepted a tribute to Attila purportedly 300 kg (700 lb) of gold) in order to stop the Hunnic raids in Thrace and the Balkans...
His succesor Marcian however refused to pay this tribute but Attila was too busy in the West to deal with Marcian...
WI Attila concluded a hasty peace with Aetius and invaded ERE in order to claim his gold?
Could WRE had survived for a longer time?
Is it possible for Aetius (having secured that the Huns would be busy attacking Marcian) to deal with the Visigoths in Spain or try to reconquer Britain?
Any thoughts?
