" In 441 by an invasion of the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, the success of which emboldened Attila to invade the West."

Sorry--I wasn't able to get in to fix this. I think it should read: "In 441, Attila's forces invaded the Eastern Roman (Byzantine) Empire, and his success emboldened him to invade the West." Meerkat77 (talk) 02:41, 12 September 2023 (UTC) [reply ]

I agree with Richard Keatinge and AirshipJungleman29 that the gallery should be removed - it's just a bunch of much later imaginings of what Attila looked like. It doesn't really have much to do with the subject. Some of the images belong on a page on Hungarian nationalism, perhaps.--Ermenrich (talk) 14:34, 9 January 2024 (UTC) [reply ]

'In The West' paragraph 5, the starting sentence "On April 7, he captured Metz he also captured Strasbourg." should have a transition word and/or possibly a comma dividing 'Metz' and 'he'. MrChezzo (talk) 03:16, 13 January 2025 (UTC) [reply ]
