Leovigild had expelled the remaining soldiers of the Greek emperors from Spain, had suppressed the audacity of the Franks, who in their raids ravaged the Visigothic provinces beyond the Pyrenees, had put an end to the sort of monarchy that the Suevi had established in Gallaecia and had expired in Toledo, after having established political and civil laws, and peace and public order in its vast domains, which stretched from coast to coast, and also, crossing the mountains of Vasconia, covered a large portion of the former Narbonian Gaul.
Leovigildo expulsara da Espanha os derradeiros soldados dos imperadores gregos, reprimira a audácia dos francos, que em suas correrias assolavam as províncias visigóticas dalém dos Pirenéus, acabara com a espécie de monarquia que os suevos tinham instituído na Galécia e expirara em Toledo, depois de ter estabelecido leis políticas e civis e a paz e ordem públicas nos seus vastos domínios, que se estendiam de mar a mar e, ainda, transpondo as montanhas da Vascónia, abrangiam uma grande porção da antiga Gália narbonense.
