It is quite certain, that the Goths inhabited several areas of modern Sweden and the Baltic. No less certain than any academical assertion in the field of ethnology.
Anyway, I dont know exactly the locations of the Gothic and Suebian kingdoms in parts of Iberia and modern France, but I know they existed for some time. Who influenced who does not change the ethnological circumstance that these peoples were Germanic and were absorbed as a component into the melting pot that today make up Spaniards.
