The Lombards also avoided the Avars & settled in Italy & got new neighbours in Carantania also Slavs. In the upper Danube region, the Alemanni & Bavarians repelled the plundering hordes of the Bulgarians or Avars. The Sorbs & other Slavs at the Elbe border also allied against the Franks & their Burgundian & Alemanni allies. The Avar sons, whose mothers were subjugated Slav women, also fight with the Slavs…
