Goth is an obsession with black symbolism. It manifests itself among youth by wearing black clothing, black hair dye, and zombie-like behavior. It can appear Satanic or anti-Christian in nature, although a large Christian Goth community exists, and Goths are not necessarily anti-Christian.
Historically, a Goth was a member of a Germanic tribe, which invaded the Roman Empire from the east between the third and fifth centuries AD. The eastern half of the tribe, the Ostrogoths eventually founded the kingdom of Italy, while the Visigoths, their western cousins, founded the kingdom of Spain.
