Answer:
The Visigoths (/ˈvɪzɪɡɒθs/; Latin: Visigothi, Wisigothi, Vesi, Visi, Wesi, Wisi) were an early Germanic people who along with the Ostrogoths constituted the two major political entities of the Goths within the Roman Empire in Late Antiquity, or what is known as the Migration Period. The Visigoths emerged from earlier Gothic groups, including a large group of Thervingi, who had moved into the Roman Empire beginning in 376 and had played a major role in defeating the Romans at the Battle of Adrianople in 378.[1] Relations between the Romans and the Visigoths were variable, alternately warring with one another and making treaties when convenient.[2] Under their first leader, Alaric I, they invaded Italy and sacked Rome in August 410. Afterwards, they began settling down, first in southern Gaul and eventually in Hispania, where they founded the Visigothic Kingdom and maintained a presence from the 5th to the 8th centuries AD.

Explanation:
Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, East Germany, Hungary, Poland, and Romania were the Soviet satellite states that formed in the Eastern bloc of Europe. Those nations were part of the Warsaw Pact, signed along with the Soviet Union in 1955. The name of that pact stems from the facts that the agreement was signed in Warsaw, Poland. Albania also was an original signer of the Warsaw Pact, but split its relationship with the Soviet Union some years later.
Prior to the end of World War II, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill and US President Franklin Roosevelt pushed strongly for Soviet leader Josef Stalin to allow free elections to take place in the nations of Europe after the war. Stalin had stated agreement with his fellow Allied leaders. But after the war ended, Stalin and the Soviets never did allow those free elections to occur. The Soviets felt they needed the Eastern European nations as satellites to protect their own interests. A line of countries in Eastern Europe came into line with the USSR and communism -- thus called "satellites."
