The correct answer is B) Former Roman lands were split up and claimed by Germanic kingdoms.

The statement that describes the impact of the collapse of the Western Roman Empire in Europe is "Former Roman lands were split up and claimed by Germanic kingdoms."

In 410 CE the Visigoths captured Rome under the leadership of Alaric. After a thousand year, Roma had fallen. But it was until 476 CE that Germanic leader Odoacer overthrow the last Romas Emperor, Romulus. That is when Odoacer became the first Barbarian ruler of Rome. The Roman Empire had fallen. Then, Roman conquered by the Empire Army lands were split up and claimed by Germanic kingdoms.
