The Western Roman Empire finally collapsed when the final emperor was driven from power. Who forced the emperor from power?

In 476 CE, the Germanic leader Odoacer deposed Romulus Augustulus, the last emperor of the Western Roman Empire. This event is commonly treated as the empire’s final collapse, so the correct choice is Germanic tribes. The Huns had earlier weakened Rome but did not depose its final emperor.
