Treaty of Margus

435 · 5th century

The Treaty of Margus was an agreement made, traditionally in 435, between the Eastern Roman Empire and the Hun kings Bleda and Attila at Margus on the Danube, in modern Serbia. Rome doubled its annual tribute to 700 pounds of gold, opened markets to the Huns and agreed to return fugitives. Its terms were renewed and raised after later Hun invasions of the Balkans.
