Geiseric of Vandals became sea faring oriented very fast and they captured antient port of Carthage, Visigoths were strong, Ostrogoths were strong, Franks, Angles, Saxons, Jutaes, Burgundians, Langobards etc... plus Huns
Guerilla warfare makes its first major impact, romans virtually impregnable in open field, totally fault of Varus though. Romans got revenge but stopped at Germania anyway
@Velsen Fest Partia defeated Romans...but how many times romans captured and sacks Partia's capitol and how many times parthians captured roman capitol (Rome or Constantinople) ?
"Guerilla warfare makes its first major impact" Iberians, and particularly Lusitanians had already used guerilla warfare against the Romans a hundred years earlier to great impact actually. It took the Romans a very, very long time to actually fully pacify the Iberian Peninsula because of guerilla tactics to which the Romans had a very hard time countering. Same with the Gauls, but they didnt had much success. The Romans themselves used guerilla warfare against the carthaginians, when they were the weakest side in the Punic Wars.
So chances are that ancestors in both of your bloodlines did put a brutal stop at the Roman expansion, GGs ( Teutoburg here + 9th Legion in Caledonia )
Augustus had been so shaken by what happened that he decreed that Rome should never again attempt to expand beyond the natural borders of the Rhine, the Danube and the Euphrates. And the fact that he was Augustus-pater patriae-meant that his advice was not easily set aside. The fact that Trajan became ill and died campaigning beyond the Euphrates probably reiterated it. This meant that Arminius’ victory set the border between the Germanic and Latin worlds. It’s a border that pretty much remains set in the same spot today. ground.Tiberius,Augustus’ successor, allowed his nephew,Germanicus to attempt a re-conquest (14-16 CE).Germanicus won some successes but suffered losses to his fleet due to storms off the North Sea.Eventually,Tiberius re-called him and stopped the campaign-probably because he feared a repeat of Varus’ disaster in 9 CE.Or maybe he felt there just wasn’t enough in Germania to justify the expense of even a successful campaign. Later rulers made occasional punitive expiditions-the most successful of which was Maximinus’ campaign of 236 CE.The Rhine remained the northern border until the western empire ended in the 5th century.Whether it would have made much difference even if Rome had actually made the Elbe the border is doubtful.There was no shortage of warlike Germanic tribes east of the Elbe as well.And these tribes could have destroyed an empire based on the Elbe too.
Tiberius also feared Germanicus' popularity with the soldiers after his string of victories. The expense associated with the campaigning was also an important factor, but by the time Germanicus was called back most Romans considered their loss at Teutoburg avenged. The eagles were restored, the dead buried, Arminius' wife captured, several German towns sacked and client kingdoms re-established with several nations beyond the Rhine. The Romans encountered many warlike peoples, but they would overcome them if their land was valuable and proximate enough. Popular history is right to recognize the martial valor of the Germanic tribes, but were they more warlike than the Celts, Dacians, Illyrians, Iberians, etc? The fact that the Germans survived unconquered has to have contributed post-facto to their reputation, but these other peoples lived in territory more desirable to the Romans and more accessible to the major population centers near the Mediterranean Sea from which the Romans would draw and supply their military from
@@sickjuicysjamshack3580 Oh yeah, Germanicus was a really interesting general. Sometimes called the Wolf sent by Mars, himself, if im not mistaken. Shame thought that he was betrayed later by his own men.

3 overconfident legions: check A naive, not-so-good leader: check A romanized barbarian hero who still feels for his people: check Forest to combat the testudo formation: check You've qualified for total annihilation.
I am not sure if the legionaries were overconfident as to say. The Roman soldiers have heard about the last conquest before that happened and heard tales of the "Barbaric" and "Unconquerable" Germans of the North-East, and the sight of deep forests and lashes away from anything they had back at home actually demoralized them alot, so it was quite the opposite..
Varus was one of the few great generals at the time,i doubt such a smart person like Augustus would put a retard to defend the north from barbarian attacks.
The leader was actually good. Varus had previous military experience and had acquitted himself well. He had governed provinces and commanded armies. He was on the fast track, the emperor trusted him with difficult missions. People blame Varus for being bad at his job, which takes away from how damn good Arminius actually was. He pretended to be Varus' friend for years, keeping his true intentions hidden all the while. He had Roman military training and knew all their strengths and weaknesses. The show Barbarians really does Varus dirty and ignores the actual sources we have about him. He was not a bumbling fool but one of the more competent and trusted agents of Rome at the time.
In a way that's a good thing. At least we've tamed ourselves enough that save the minor bit of actual psychopaths in the world, the majority of us aren't always ready to kill each other.
Roman legionary: what a beautiful day to have a walk in the forrests of Germania. Has anyone seen Arminius? I would like to thank him for showing us this wonderful and absolutely save hiking trail
Everything I know about battle...I learned from you. -- What do we fight for? I often asked you that. Some fight for what used to be. And others for what is to come. Or for love We fight for honor. We fight for glory. We fight for our freedom. Some fight for their children. Still others fight for their gods. The key thing is that we can only win if we're in complete control of our emotions. If we have a crystal-clear strategy. You must maintain order in your ranking while destroying that of the enemy. Whatever we fight for...we pay the price in blood. We all die...the guilty...and the innocent. And when all is lost...you still need the help of the gods. Your impregnable armor became your largest burden. But the most important thing...is to recognize your enemy's greatest weakness. And bring all your strengt down on this point. -Take my armor. Are you sure, Dominus? You are a free man. Get out of here. And your biggest weakness...was your trust in me. I ask my self...What were you fighting for? And was it worth it? Pater... PATER!!!

This is similar to what happened when the Romans attempted to invade the deep pine forests of Scotland. The Celts were so much better at fighting in those conditions, similar to the Germans. The Romans could only win on large open fields where they could use their testudo and Pila effectively
Teutoburg is such an interesting battle because it shows what happens if you take away a Roman's discipline and organization, force him to fight man to man and against the peoples of Germania who were physically stronger and taller than the Roman peoples, they didn't have much of a chance even with their superior equipment, they lost against superior strength and skill.

@@MrHeidiHigh never said there were Celts there.

The Germanic Hordes were just too far from Roman held Gaul. The Germans were also far too vicious for the Germans to defeat.
Similar battle formation did happen in real life. There was an archeological find with a similar battle formation that the roman lost in the German marsh woods, while marching in a long line formation. In the real battle the barbarians also used fire logs or burning coal, etc.. In the real life the roman then later on leveled all the tribes that participated in the ambush. One by one, till the formally barbarian middle Europe became part of the Roman Empire.
Only the south-west of germany was part of the roman empire ( Limes). The whole rest was not, thanks to Hermann (Arminius). As a result, our modern german language is free from Latin, it is not part of the latin world (like French). Without this battle, the whole history of Germany and the world would be different.

@@Wunderbutzi The worst thing is, the language we speak now has it's roots in the languages spoken by the tribes here, but it was latinised by the followers of a late Roman death cult.
@@SelfProclaimedEmperor The Romans got beaten quite a few times by the Germanic tribes in open battles so you cant know that for sure.

Just imagine if all germanic tribes had united against the Romanempire would have fell very fast since only a few of the Germanic tribes conquered the Romans themself. Greetings from the north.
@@BirkaViking Rome didn't start to recruit large numbers of barbarians until well into its weak state, some time in the late 4th century AD. The most famous instance of the Germanics attacking Roman legions in the open is the battle of Aquae Sextiae, in which the Germanic barbarians suffered 100,000-200,000 dead, and Rome only suffered 1,000 dead. A kill ratio of 100 to 1 in favor of Rome. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Aquae_Sextiae
@@SelfProclaimedEmperor The Romans had hired and kidnapped germanic soldiers long before this battle Arminus was himself a victim of that policy. Hard to tell if those number are correct since its the romans counts that exist. And that battle was in 102 bc with other words long before this battle. But if you count earlier battles you can also count this one: Battle of Arausio en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Arausio And this battle is from the Roman sources themself.
@Ryan Sharp No, not funny at all. Heavy armour, cavalry units and engines of war are absolutely unsuitable for sylvan warfare. What came on top of that were the facts that the thickness of the Germanic forests forced the Romans to walk in long rows of individual soldiers instead of marching as organised units and that the weather was simply dreadful, rainy and stormy. You cannot possibly maintain order and discipline under such conditions, which was exactly what Arminius had anticipated when he lured the Romans away from the safe roads into the forests and into a series of well-planned ambushes in which he gradually wore out and decimated the exhausted Roman legions.
I dont know why but looking at the germanic dude with the bear skin and goat skull "which i believe to be their beserkers/aka choosen warriors?" always gaves me chills
Germanic tribes screaming. Arminius too. Why ? because you did not catch the legions under Germanicus unawares. They came with purpose and gave the great unwashed numerous tribesmen a thorough thrashing. Now for a glass of wine from Italy.
Season 2 would be quite dramatic for our main characters, Germanicus really wreaked havoc in Germania, defeating Arminius 2 times in open battle, taking no prisoners and burning every village along the way... Arminius would outlive Germanicus though, but only by 2 years before being assassinated by his own noblemen... Thusnelda was captured by Germanicus and sold into slavery, Arminius unborn son would grow up as a captive in Rome, just like his father... the other guy I don't know, probably dead in some battle... The upside is that we would get to know Arminius brother, who fought with Germanicus and stayed loyal to Rome...

As V.I Lenin said “whoever controls Germany controls Europe”. The failure of the Romans to take Germania due to the victory at Tuetoberg forest is what eventually cost them their empire. Brilliant song.,
You really overestimate Teutoburg battle don't you, This annihilated three legions yes but it wasn't that much other than the fact that the Romans never dated to conquer beyond the Rhine ever again. Alit of areas that Arminius rebelled in had been reconquered by the later brilliant Legatus Germanicus who had also recovered 2 of the 3 lost eagle standards. Actually the Civil wars fought amongst Romans was one of the many reasons as to why the Empire fell, I believe there was a battle that had more causalities than the battle of cannae and battle of Teutoburg, Combined, The succession law was messed up, the economy was messy incompetent leaders, braindead governor's usurpers after usurpers and assassination alongside double back down deals made in the Senate and constant change if dynasties along with the destruction of infantructure that came along with the civil wars was what caused the fall of Romans and don't get me wrong but that Lenin dude, yeah I doubt his words
Not at all. The Empire’s Golden Age was the exact century following this defeat. This didn’t cost Rome anything but the loss of 3 legions (still one of the worst military losses in Roman history) but in terms of their Empire they weren’t affected at all
@@marcot3868 I disagree. The failure to take Germania in the long run cost them their empire as the tribes then invaded as the empire collapsed. If they had subdued Germany the empire would have likely gone as far as the Russian steppe and maybe lasted a few hundred years more.
@@JJaguar333 No, the tribes that invaded Italy weren’t those that won at Teutoburg. The tribes that allied at Teutoburg were defeated by the Romans again few years later. The Germanic tribes that invaded the Empire came from Scandinavia originally, and from the Southern Baltic. Plus even without the Germanic intervention the Roman Empire was still doomed to fall due to internal divisions
in reality, the ancient Germans were head and shoulders above the Romans. The height of the Roman soldier was approximately 160-165 centimeters, up to 170 centimeters. the height of the ancient Germanic warrior was approximately 180-195 centimeters. This is not shown in the film.
@@ludger9878 its proven by ancient founds like armors. The average roman 2000 years ago was really just about 150 to 170 cm. The average german about 170 to 185 cm. The romans described the germanic barbarians as axe swinging giants with wild blue eyes
@@koriander9559 Du bist deutsch oder? Ich kenne mich sehr wohl mit unsrer Geschichte aus, mein Kommentar war darauf bezogen, dass man wohl nicht nur riesen Schauspieler zur Verfügung hat.
The series shows the Romans as children and the barbarians as very strong giants. In reality, the legionaries underwent years of training and were much superior and better prepared than professionals. They lost that battle simply because they were cowardly betrayed and fell victim to an ambush. When a barbarian proposed to the emperor to take revenge by poisoning Arminius, the emperor replied that Rome would not avenge itself by these means but by force as it was accustomed to do. Subsequently Germanicus Iulius Caesar in the battle of Idistaviso defeated Arminius and exterminated all the rebellious barbarian peoples gathered under him, then he was recalled to Rome by the Emperor. Rome continued for another 400 years to cross the river Reno every time it wanted to raid men for example. Germany was abandoned and left to itself because it was not very attractive, it was a huge forest substantially, and not at all convenient to maintain permanently, inhabited by peoples who it was understood that it was not worth being civilized, unlike others subjected by the Romans such as Iberians, Gauls, English, Egyptians, Jews who accepted the Roman presence at a later time willingly because it also guaranteed stability and progress.
@Ole Ahlers Yeah, for the most part the show did a really good job of showing how Arminius used the forest, and his knowledge of Roman formations, to systematically deprive them of every advantage.
To be fair Arminius knows roman tactics and how they fought individually certainly he knows where's the best part to hit a legionaries that would be a fatal blow

@Velsen Fest Partia defeated Romans...but how many times romans captured and sacks Partia's capitol and how many times parthians captured roman capitol (Rome or Constantinople) ?
"Guerilla warfare makes its first major impact"
Iberians, and particularly Lusitanians had already used guerilla warfare against the Romans a hundred years earlier to great impact actually. It took the Romans a very, very long time to actually fully pacify the Iberian Peninsula because of guerilla tactics to which the Romans had a very hard time countering. Same with the Gauls, but they didnt had much success.
The Romans themselves used guerilla warfare against the carthaginians, when they were the weakest side in the Punic Wars.

So chances are that ancestors in both of your bloodlines did put a brutal stop at the Roman expansion, GGs ( Teutoburg here + 9th Legion in Caledonia )
Overconfidence is one of the most deadly killers of all. a hidden serpent burrowed in the head of man waiting to strike but always misses its prey
Hence Varus the fool & in military academies an example of how not to conduct a campaign.
Augustus had been so shaken by what happened that he decreed that Rome should never again attempt to expand beyond the natural borders of the Rhine, the Danube and the Euphrates. And the fact that he was Augustus-pater patriae-meant that his advice was not easily set aside. The fact that Trajan became ill and died campaigning beyond the Euphrates probably reiterated it.
This meant that Arminius’ victory set the border between the Germanic and Latin worlds. It’s a border that pretty much remains set in the same spot today. ground.Tiberius,Augustus’ successor, allowed his nephew,Germanicus to attempt a re-conquest (14-16 CE).Germanicus won some successes but suffered losses to his fleet due to storms off the North Sea.Eventually,Tiberius re-called him and stopped the campaign-probably because he feared a repeat of Varus’ disaster in 9 CE.Or maybe he felt there just wasn’t enough in Germania to justify the expense of even a successful campaign.
Later rulers made occasional punitive expiditions-the most successful of which was Maximinus’ campaign of 236 CE.The Rhine remained the northern border until the western empire ended in the 5th century.Whether it would have made much difference even if Rome had actually made the Elbe the border is doubtful.There was no shortage of warlike Germanic tribes east of the Elbe as well.And these tribes could have destroyed an empire based on the Elbe too.
Not really Romans got their revenge.
Tiberius also feared Germanicus' popularity with the soldiers after his string of victories. The expense associated with the campaigning was also an important factor, but by the time Germanicus was called back most Romans considered their loss at Teutoburg avenged. The eagles were restored, the dead buried, Arminius' wife captured, several German towns sacked and client kingdoms re-established with several nations beyond the Rhine.
The Romans encountered many warlike peoples, but they would overcome them if their land was valuable and proximate enough. Popular history is right to recognize the martial valor of the Germanic tribes, but were they more warlike than the Celts, Dacians, Illyrians, Iberians, etc? The fact that the Germans survived unconquered has to have contributed post-facto to their reputation, but these other peoples lived in territory more desirable to the Romans and more accessible to the major population centers near the Mediterranean Sea from which the Romans would draw and supply their military from

You've qualified for total annihilation.
I am not sure if the legionaries were overconfident as to say. The Roman soldiers have heard about the last conquest before that happened and heard tales of the "Barbaric" and "Unconquerable" Germans of the North-East, and the sight of deep forests and lashes away from anything they had back at home actually demoralized them alot, so it was quite the opposite..
Varus was one of the few great generals at the time,i doubt such a smart person like Augustus would put a retard to defend the north from barbarian attacks.
The leader was actually good. Varus had previous military experience and had acquitted himself well. He had governed provinces and commanded armies. He was on the fast track, the emperor trusted him with difficult missions. People blame Varus for being bad at his job, which takes away from how damn good Arminius actually was. He pretended to be Varus' friend for years, keeping his true intentions hidden all the while. He had Roman military training and knew all their strengths and weaknesses. The show Barbarians really does Varus dirty and ignores the actual sources we have about him. He was not a bumbling fool but one of the more competent and trusted agents of Rome at the time.

What do we fight for?
I often asked you that.
Some fight for what used to be.
And others for what is to come.
Or for love
We fight for honor.
We fight for glory.
We fight for our freedom.
Some fight for their children.
Still others fight for their gods.
The key thing is that we can only win
if we're in complete control of our emotions.
If we have a crystal-clear strategy.
You must maintain order in your ranking while destroying that of the enemy.
Whatever we fight for...we pay the price in blood.
We all die...the guilty...and the innocent.
And when all is lost...you still need the help of the gods.
Your impregnable armor became your largest burden.
But the most important thing...is to recognize your enemy's greatest weakness.
And bring all your strengt down on this point.

Teutoburg is such an interesting battle because it shows what happens if you take away a Roman's discipline and organization, force him to fight man to man and against the peoples of Germania who were physically stronger and taller than the Roman peoples, they didn't have much of a chance even with their superior equipment, they lost against superior strength and skill.
Historical record shows most Roman soldiers were 165-175cm, while most Vikings during similar era were of the same height. But cmiiw

@@MrHeidiHigh never said there were Celts there. But this point in Time Caesar had wiped out the Guals/Celts throughout great er Gaul. your ancestors were facing a Roman force that had been fighting pitched battles for years against the Celts/Gauls. The Germanic Hordes were just too far from Roman held Gaul. The Germans were also far too vicious for the Germans to defeat.
Similar battle formation did happen in real life. There was an archeological find with a similar battle formation that the roman lost in the German marsh woods, while marching in a long line formation.
In the real battle the barbarians also used fire logs or burning coal, etc..
In the real life the roman then later on leveled all the tribes that participated in the ambush. One by one, till the formally barbarian middle Europe became part of the Roman Empire.
Only the south-west of germany was part of the roman empire ( Limes). The whole rest was not, thanks to Hermann (Arminius). As a result, our modern german language is free from Latin, it is not part of the latin world (like French). Without this battle, the whole history of Germany and the world would be different.

@@SelfProclaimedEmperor The Romans got beaten quite a few times by the Germanic tribes in open battles so you cant know that for sure.
Plus a great part of the Roman army was also Germanic because the Romans had a hard time produce soldiers themself. In reality the Romans had major problems with only a few germanic tribes. Just imagine if all germanic tribes had united against the Romanempire would have fell very fast since only a few of the Germanic tribes conquered the Romans themself.
Greetings from the north.
@@BirkaViking Rome didn't start to recruit large numbers of barbarians until well into its weak state, some time in the late 4th century AD. The most famous instance of the Germanics attacking Roman legions in the open is the battle of Aquae Sextiae, in which the Germanic barbarians suffered 100,000-200,000 dead, and Rome only suffered 1,000 dead. A kill ratio of 100 to 1 in favor of Rome. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Aquae_Sextiae
@@SelfProclaimedEmperor The Romans had hired and kidnapped germanic soldiers long before this battle Arminus was himself a victim of that policy.
Hard to tell if those number are correct since its the romans counts that exist.

Everybody gangsta until Rome returns with 8 whole legions and Germanicus at its head
@Ryan Sharp they only used 8 legions kid lol
@Ryan Sharp Dude Germanicus absolutely ruined Germania and the Hunnic hordes from centuries later outnumbered the Roman Legions? 🙄
@Ryan Sharp No, not funny at all. Heavy armour, cavalry units and engines of war are absolutely unsuitable for sylvan warfare. What came on top of that were the facts that the thickness of the Germanic forests forced the Romans to walk in long rows of individual soldiers instead of marching as organised units and that the weather was simply dreadful, rainy and stormy. You cannot possibly maintain order and discipline under such conditions, which was exactly what Arminius had anticipated when he lured the Romans away from the safe roads into the forests and into a series of well-planned ambushes in which he gradually wore out and decimated the exhausted Roman legions.
@Ryan Sharp back to school kid
The barbarians also returned and burned Rome to the ground.

This show captivated me .... I need season 2
Season 2 would be quite dramatic for our main characters, Germanicus really wreaked havoc in Germania, defeating Arminius 2 times in open battle, taking no prisoners and burning every village along the way... Arminius would outlive Germanicus though, but only by 2 years before being assassinated by his own noblemen... Thusnelda was captured by Germanicus and sold into slavery, Arminius unborn son would grow up as a captive in Rome, just like his father... the other guy I don't know, probably dead in some battle...
The upside is that we would get to know Arminius brother, who fought with Germanicus and stayed loyal to Rome...
I mean if you wanna watch every character die to Germanicus and all their homes burned to the ground then sure
How cool would it have been if they put a scene of them having a party before the battle to this song man missed opportunity

As V.I Lenin said “whoever controls Germany controls Europe”. The failure of the Romans to take Germania due to the victory at Tuetoberg forest is what eventually cost them their empire. Brilliant song.,
Not exactly but ok lol
You really overestimate Teutoburg battle don't you, This annihilated three legions yes but it wasn't that much other than the fact that the Romans never dated to conquer beyond the Rhine ever again. Alit of areas that Arminius rebelled in had been reconquered by the later brilliant Legatus Germanicus who had also recovered 2 of the 3 lost eagle standards. Actually the Civil wars fought amongst Romans was one of the many reasons as to why the Empire fell, I believe there was a battle that had more causalities than the battle of cannae and battle of Teutoburg, Combined, The succession law was messed up, the economy was messy incompetent leaders, braindead governor's usurpers after usurpers and assassination alongside double back down deals made in the Senate and constant change if dynasties along with the destruction of infantructure that came along with the civil wars was what caused the fall of Romans and don't get me wrong but that Lenin dude, yeah I doubt his words
Not at all. The Empire’s Golden Age was the exact century following this defeat. This didn’t cost Rome anything but the loss of 3 legions (still one of the worst military losses in Roman history) but in terms of their Empire they weren’t affected at all
@@marcot3868 I disagree. The failure to take Germania in the long run cost them their empire as the tribes then invaded as the empire collapsed. If they had subdued Germany the empire would have likely gone as far as the Russian steppe and maybe lasted a few hundred years more.
@@JJaguar333 No, the tribes that invaded Italy weren’t those that won at Teutoburg. The tribes that allied at Teutoburg were defeated by the Romans again few years later. The Germanic tribes that invaded the Empire came from Scandinavia originally, and from the Southern Baltic.

in reality, the ancient Germans were head and shoulders above the Romans. The height of the Roman soldier was approximately 160-165 centimeters, up to 170 centimeters.
the height of the ancient Germanic warrior was approximately 180-195 centimeters. This is not shown in the film.
How this would be possible? :D
@@ludger9878 its proven by ancient founds like armors. The average roman 2000 years ago was really just about 150 to 170 cm. The average german about 170 to 185 cm. The romans described the germanic barbarians as axe swinging giants with wild blue eyes
@@koriander9559 Du bist deutsch oder? Ich kenne mich sehr wohl mit unsrer Geschichte aus, mein Kommentar war darauf bezogen, dass man wohl nicht nur riesen Schauspieler zur Verfügung hat.
The series shows the Romans as children and the barbarians as very strong giants. In reality, the legionaries underwent years of training and were much superior and better prepared than professionals. They lost that battle simply because they were cowardly betrayed and fell victim to an ambush. When a barbarian proposed to the emperor to take revenge by poisoning Arminius, the emperor replied that Rome would not avenge itself by these means but by force as it was accustomed to do. Subsequently Germanicus Iulius Caesar in the battle of Idistaviso defeated Arminius and exterminated all the rebellious barbarian peoples gathered under him, then he was recalled to Rome by the Emperor. Rome continued for another 400 years to cross the river Reno every time it wanted to raid men for example. Germany was abandoned and left to itself because it was not very attractive, it was a huge forest substantially, and not at all convenient to maintain permanently, inhabited by peoples who it was understood that it was not worth being civilized, unlike others subjected by the Romans such as Iberians, Gauls, English, Egyptians, Jews who accepted the Roman presence at a later time willingly because it also guaranteed stability and progress.
