The narrative delves into the ambitions of key players, including Emperor Justinian and various leaders of the Vandal tribes. The opening of the text sets the stage for the discussion of the Vandalic War by describing the historical context leading to the conflict. Procopius begins with an overview of the Roman Empire's division and the emergence of various barbarian tribes, particularly focusing on the Vandals' migration and eventual settlement in Roman territories. He recounts the initial interactions between the Vandals and the Roman Empire, painting a picture of the deteriorating political landscape that ultimately leads to warfare.
