From my understanding and research, I've come to find the Huns as slightly more advanced people, in the sense of weaponry, whose force could be seen throughout southern Roman cities through their ransacking. However, I'm not quite sure as to why the Ambassadors are being welcomed by the Huns in the first place. Seeing as they tend to use force where they go, what's the significance of welcoming these people?
Can someone please give me specific info of where it says what's going on?
