This episode of Ten Minute History (like a documentary, only shorter) covers the decline and fall of the Western Roman Empire. It deals with the division of the empire by Theodosius I and the rule of his successors Honorius and Arcadius. Honorius' reign saw Britannia leave the empire and the first sack of Rome in about 800 years. The borders of the empire continued to weaken under his successors in the west as the East held on in the face of barbarian groups like the Huns or the Vandals. In the end, the Western Roman Empire would disappear in 476 ushering in a new age of smaller kingdoms in Europe.
Recommended books:
Chris Wickham - The Inheritance of Rome. Phenomenal book which covers the decline of the Roman Empire in the west (and also the East) and details what happened in the aftermath of its fall.
Peter Brown - The World of Late Antiquity. One of the classics surrounding the period. Be aware that it is starting to show its age but frankly there aren't loads of great introductory overview materials like this for the period so it's still very valuable.

Yeah, stilico got pretty close to rejoining the empire, resolving most of its problems, but was murdered, then barbarians living in Rome suffered a genocide and the barbarian Roman soldiers turned on their leaders and sacked Rome. Stilico was the last great general of the empire, and in my eyes Rome basically died with him.

Zeno was a surprisingly competent emperor who was dealt a bad hand, tried as best he could to hold the empire together after the fuck-ups of his precursors, even made some progress in the realm of foreign policy, but nevertheless was shit on by subsequent Byzantine historians because he wasn't Roman/Hellenic - he was an Isaurian who married into the empire, and the Byzantines considered him a barbarian. Despite this, he wasn't a dumpster fire of an emperor and as far as Byzantine history goes that's a high compliment.

I think it's worth mentioning now and then that Theodosius didn't come up with the idea of dividing the Empire. During the 4th century, the periods when the Empire was _not_ divided were the exception (326-337 under Constantine, 353-364 under Constantius II, Julian, and Jovian, and only 392-394 under Theodosius), usually along very similar lines. The division between Arcadius and Honorius just happened to be the last one.

If you are worried about the age of "The World of Late Antiquity" I highly recommend Brown's latest publication on the subject: "Through the Eye of a Needle: Wealth, the Fall of Rome, and the Making of Christianity in the West 350-550 AD" It contains some important updates, chief among those being the notion that the barbarian invasions were a scapegoat conjured by Roman writers. The barbarian proto-kingdoms did play a part in Rome's downfall of course, but more through drawing talented romans away from Imperial courts to their own and thus becoming a valid alternative to the Respublica.

Glad to have been of assistance. The book is mainly concerned with contemporary views on wealth though, just so you know. It provides an overview of more general developments (like the so called barbarian invasions) only in as far as they serve to contextualize the discourse on wealth. Would still recommend it to anyone interested in late western Roman culture.

To think that the fall of the Western Rome was the start of the dark ages of Europe is interesting, their fall also had a huge effect on the Eastern counterpart to have enemies on all sides.

Something interesting which is often forgotten is the status of the "barbarian" kings relative to the empire. The late Western Roman Empire effectively invented feudalism in the sense that for a long time the barbarian kings swore allegiance to the Emperor while being very autonomous in their rule. Also it's interesting to see that while we remember 476 as the date of the fall of the WRE, at the time it really wasn't seen as that. When Odoacer deposed Romulus Augustus, he actually sent his crown and scepter to the Eastern Roman Emperor saying "the Empire is now restored". It's later and only gradually that it became clear that the barbarian kings were happy to do things on their own and started ignoring the Emperor.

My country bares the name of Rome with pride.From Trajan conquest of Dacia our ancestors preserved their culture and language in the Carpathians... we were on constant invasion from the East and North, but by staying low profile and hidden in the mountains and dense forrests, we manage to reemerge as the only romance language in the Eastern Europe, as we usually say : "an Island on Latinity in a see of Slavs" . After almost 1800 years from the roman occupation, we still speak a latin based language, greetings from Romania🇷🇴
