Conclusion

The earliest Goths were a Germanic group that settled in Iberian Peninsula during 5th century, people serving the Roman Empire. The Visigothic legal law begins with the laws enacted by Theodoric I (419-451) and Theodoric II (453-466), who focused the attention on he problem of land distribution among Gallo-Romans and Visigoths, very important at that time.

In the second half of the 6th century Leovigild (568–586) appears as the most effective of the Visigothic monarchs. During his kingdom advanced the unification of the peninsula by conquering the Suebi and subduing the Basques. Ruling from Toledo in the centre of the peninsula, he transformed Visigothic kingship by adopting the throne and other Roman symbols of monarchy.

The Laws of the Visigoths, were revised by different kings until Erwig in 681, he issued the most detailed and sophisticated law code of the early post-Roman kingdoms. In coming decades the Laws of the Visigoths continued to influence law in Christian Spain long after the fall of the Visigothic kingdom, as shows the Liber Iudiciorum.

Late seventh-century Visigothic kings, although supported by the church, suffered disputed successions, rebellions, and problems with the nobility. A dispute put end the kingdom before the Arab invasion in 711.
