For many centuries nobody exactly knew where the Varus battle took place... Some years ago a retired british soldier and hobby archeologist went with his metal detector in the open fields near the city of Osnarbrück. Suddenly he found several metal pieces and a roman coin with the portrait of Varus. After that excavations were made and many remains and even artefacts including aroman bronze mask was dicovered. Today there is a museum and the nearby town is Kalkriese... recently I was in the little town of Xanten near the dutch border. There used to be once a roman garnison, today with an interesting archeological museum. Not far in the countryside is even an old roman amphitheatre, but not made of stone but of earth. The structure is still visible and it`s still used for performances, concerts etc...Many greetings from Germany😉
the battle of armenius is called in german "Varusschlacht" "Schlacht am Teuteburger Wald" or "Hermannsschlacht" in english most often called the "Battle of the Teutoburg Forest" or the Varus Disaster. Aremnius is known as the "liberator of germania" if you wanna see something rly cool look up the "Hermannsdenkmal" german for "Hermann Memorial" a huge statue of Hermann that reminds of Armenius battle at the Teuteburg Forest PS: and yes we learn that at school in germany ^^ aint that many fights you can be proud of with our history of the last century so we go back a bit further for that xD
Where is he "known" for that? Maybe you are 140 years too late. Nobody in modern day Germany gives a cr.p about Arminius, 90% of people have no idea who he was.
@@leisen9679 Well, I would dispute that. I would say that the majority of Germans know who Arminius was. This is taught in every school. Especially because the Varus Battle was decisive for the development of later history. If they had been defeated, there would have been no Franks, no Holy Roman Empire, and certainly no Germany. And perhaps not so many wars. We don't talk about such things much here, but everyone I know knows about the Hermann Monument and the battle associated with it. We even went on a school trip there. If you don't learn about such things in history, you don't understand many of the connections.
13:00 Do you know about a certain tribe that is immortalized in our language? The Vandals caused so much destruction that the word vandalism exist now.
Moin ut noorddüütschland ( low saxony germany) vun de waterkant Bremerhaven 😊👍 The name “Germania” comes from the ancient Romans, who adopted it from the Gauls (Gallier North est France people) However, its exact origins are not known. This area was inhabited mainly by Germanic tribes who were never fully subjugated to the Roman Empire. German is a Germanic word and means. Old Germanic ger means spear, man means man. Allerbest un hool di wuchtig mien keerl 👍. That's low german language 😊
I admit I didn't watch the whole video, because the original video is misleading. I am so fed up, with forgetting that Western Germany was indeed part of the Roman Empire, cities like Cologne, Mainz, Trier and Regensburg were important Roman cities and have important Roman legacies, like the Porta Nigra. The Roman limes goes right through Germany. I am from Western Germany and I wonder why the history of our region is almost always neglected.
Süddeutschland war nicht von Germanischen Stämmen bewohnt, sondern von Kelten. Und die linksrheinischen Gebiete waren gerade mal die Peripherie Germaniens und überhaupt erst kurz vor Ankunft der Römer von Germanen besiedelt (um 250 v. Chr.). Deshalb kann man sehr wohl sagen, dass die Römer nie Germania Magna, das eigentliche Germanien, also alles rechts des Rheins und nördlich der Donau, erobert haben.
Well, it is about Germania, not Germany. Germania was east of the Rhine. After the fall of Rome, the germanic tribes expanded to the west. Also germanic doesn't mean german, the germans came out of the germanic tribes.

If you want to learn more about Germania at this time you definitely should watch "animated history of Germany part 2" 👌

Have you seen Rammstein "Deutschland" Music Video?
Also forgotten to mention that important parts of today's Germany were actually Roman in that time, like my hometown Frankfurt.
@@leisen9679 Gude! Man denke nur an den Limes :D
@@leisen9679 important parts?

You might have heard of the confederation that a couple of those tribes formed later on: the Franks.
React to "Why did the Protestant Reformation happen?"
