KJV - Judges 8:28

Thus was Midian subdued before the children of Israel, so that they lifted up their heads no more. And the country was in quietness forty years in the days of Gideon.

So, Midian was defeated by Israel's kids, and they didn't dare to cause trouble again. During Gideon's time, the land enjoyed peace for 40 years.
