Naively, we would think that the roman legions fell together with the Western Roman Empire, but the Eastern Roman Empire survived far longer. Consequently, we shouldn't be surprised to find that Roman legions survived the Fall of the Western Empire. And one such legion is the Legio V Macedonica. It was first levied in 43 BC by Octavian himself and Gaius Caetronianus in the province of Macedonia. Throughout the centuries, the legion participated in many battles, in the 1st century AD in the jewish revolt, in the 2nd century against the Dacians, the Partians and against the Marcommani. In the late 3rd century, the legion became a comitatenses unit under the Magister Militum per Orientis. It fought against the Sassanians in 296. In the early 5th century, the legion was stationed in Dacia Ripensis. The last mention of the legion is from 635 or 636 AD in Egypt, so very shortly before the invasion of Egypt by the Arabs. It might very well be, that this last known roman legion, died fighting the Arab invasion, after 680 years of continual existence, making it the longest lived roman legion, and the last roman legion that we know of.
