The End of the World

Around 400AD two Barbarian babies were born. One would grow up to become the fiercest of them all - Attila the Hun. The other, Geiseric, led the greatest wreckers in history - the Vandals. Jones finds out that Roman civilisation wasn't entirely destroyed by the invasion of these tribes the and how the Roman Catholic Church survived to tell the Roman version of the truth.
