The
Kingdom of the Suebi , also called the
Kingdom of Gallæcia , was a
Germanic post-Roman kingdom, one of the first ones to separate from the
Roman Empire. Based in the former Roman provinces of
Gallaecia and northern
Lusitania, the de facto kingdom was established by the
Suebi about 410 and during the 6th century it became a formally declared kingdom identifying with Gallaecia. It maintained its independence until 585, when it was annexed by the
Visigoths, and was turned into the sixth province of the
Visigothic Kingdom of Hispania.
