  1. Kings of the Visigoths

    Terving kings: These kings and leaders, with the exception of Fritigern, and the possible exception of Alavivus, were pagans.

    Athanaric (369–381)

    Rothesteus, sub-king

    Winguric, sub-king

    Alavivus (c. 376), rebel against Valens

    Fritigern (c. 376–c. 380), rebel against Athanaric and Valens

    Balti dynasty: These kings were Arians, but they tended to succeed their fathers or close relatives on the throne and thus constitute a dynasty.

  2. You must mean the Visigoth's.  (yes, Google will fail you if you use the spelling "visigod", rather than Visigoth).  

    Yep, Alaric the First and Second where both barbarian Kings who fought for Rome, but later rebelled, contributing to the fall of the Roman Empire.  Interesting story, really.
