History
After the Roman Empire lost their grasp on the Warehouse, the regents decided to move towards a new leading power, the Huns. Although this era of Warehouse history would be short due to the many problems that lead to it's pre-mature shift to the next Warehouse, Warehouse 5.

Initially, there was much debate about where the Warehouse should be constructed. The frequently changing High King of the Huns also meant their capital did not remain constant for long. A contract was eventually made up, establishing Aquincum as the location of the Warehouse. In 434 CE, the artifacts were moved to their new home under the rule of High King Rugila. His time on the throne was cut short when he was "struck dead with a thunderbolt" later that year according to record. Around the same time, an unknown epidemic swept through his army, killing all his men. Warehouse records do not state how these events occurred, but that artifacts may have been involved.

The empire was then split between Rugila's two nephews, Bleda and Attila. They conquered much of the Roman Empire together until Attila murdered Bleda in 445. This left Attila as the sole ruler of the Hunnic empire and he now had full control over Warehouse 4. Attila showed no interest in remaining in Aquincum with the Warehouse, which had become a battleground against the Romans, so he constructed a wooden palace in the nearby Pest Plains. Within it, Attila stored his favorite artifacts to be used for conquering when it pleased him. The Hunnic Empire grew to its peak under his might, taking over most of Eastern and Central Europe.

Attila's reign came to an end in 453. On his wedding night he suffered a severe nosebleed and choked to death in his bed. Though the death was unexpected, the Regents correctly predicted that the Empire would soon fall into the hands of Attila's sons and be torn apart as they each vied for power. For this reason, the next powerful nation was sought out immediately and Warehouse 5 was hastily constructed. The destination was a return to the Roman Empire, this time under the Byzantines of the East.

Host Country Distress
Often rgarded as the shortest period of time the Warehouse has ever been located in a dynasty, Warehouse 4 was in Central Asia only until 453, when Attila died of a nosebleed on his wedding night. His sons vied for power, tribes rebelled, and the Warehouse moved back to the Eastern Roman, or Byzantine Empire.
