Go back and read your history. they took over Spain, North Africa and later became Trinitarians. Where do you think the West Goths were when they opposed the moslem invasions and reconquest of Spain.

As for links. before I got internet I used the Public library. It is still there.

***The Visigoths then moved on to southern France and Spain , where they finally settled. Al- though they were tolerant of the Catholic worship in the areas they con- trolled, they were isolated from the Latin population for almost two centuries by their refusal to give up Arianism. They were finally converted toward the end of the sixth century.***
