⚔️ The Roman revenge - After the Teutoburg massacre
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 3 янв 2025
- Arminius' ambush at Teutoburg was a colossal military catastrophe and a devastating blow to Rome's pride and power. But Rome was thirsty for revenge. The task fell first to Tiberius and then to Germanicus, a reputed Roman general who distinguished himself in Germania and fought the legendary battle of Idistaviso.

Rome divides and unites. Some people hated the romans Some loved them..that's just the way it is ..they had great resilience..lost a legion in Scotland then built a wall lost to the parthians and hannibal and sparticus .boudicca etc .but still kept going ...even after the goths sacked rome..still they recovered ..says a lot for them as a people...
no it doesnt. everyones a survivor ...others faced much worse conditions and odds and now run the planet..where is rome now lol bankrupt
The Romans didn't lose a legion ( the 9th, also known as Legio IX Hispana) in Scotland around 1068 AD. That is nothing more than a work of popular fiction. Evidence shows that they were (or elements of them) in the Netherlands around AD120, with the generally agreed view they were wiped out fighting the Parthians in Armenia around AD160 - AD166...
@@Xl8tor241 pretty sure they were wiped out during the Second Great Jewish Revolt.
The Romans were inspirational and that's why they made such intimidating opponents. The Last Roman Legion- Legio V Macedonica which was founded by Augustus himself in 43 BC- was fighting the Muslims in Egypt in around 630s AD. Imagine fighting a military unit that was around before Christ was even born, when Cleopatra still ruled Egypt. Now that's intimidating. It was said that they held the Roman right flank (flank of honor) and stood strong against the Muslim onslaught, almost routing them before the Romans' own left flank was routed and they were surrounded. But they still held firm and did rear guard action to save many units. The remnants of this army and the Legion would form the backbone of Roman resistance in Egypt but it was not enough.

If he had not died he would have succeeded Tiberius.
yes. the trouble with the Roman politicians is when a general has amazing victories annihilating Romes enemies the politicians fear he will be the emperor and they kill him and put Rome into slow motion suicide. guys like Germanicus come along once in 100 years you cant kill them @@frankgesuele6298

My man, your channel is pretty good for a small one. You just got yourself a new subscriber.
The massacre cost the germans more in the long run than it cost the Romans. 20,000 troops compared to several Germanic tribal groups exterminated and several more severely damaged, I think the germans learned a lesson from this. The romans could have gone back over and over to keep doing this but stopped when they thought they had done enough.
Huh? germans literally conquered whole western roman empire and sacked Rome multiple times
The Romans never again did anything in Germania after this pointless campaign, infact the Germans consistently poked and prodded the border killing thousands of Romans 😂
The romans won, Germania hadas noting else to offer
@@poncho9960 won? Their whole western empire was taken over by barbarians

Well that's one legendary battle I never heard of, thanks.
of course you didnt. for some reason historians are against Rome. that battle was only the beginning. here on you tube look up avenging varus it is a series where germanicus annihilates the germans one after the other and captures arminius's wife and son. he forces arminius to run from the field disguising himself like a girl
By coincidence, I have been watching the grand BBC/PBS miniseries "I Claudius." It was a sensation in its day (mid-70's) and still a gas. I am especially appreciating the performance of Brian Blessed as Augustus, and his repeated roars; "Publius Quinctilius Varus, WHERE ARE MY EAGLES!" is ringing in my ears.
They cast Brian Blessed as Augustus? Geez. All he ever did was roar. He was as much of a cringe gimmick actor as Jack Nicholson and Al Pacino.
that's why lol How is knowing all that stuff not going to be divisive going forward? it just leads the germans into wanting revenge for germanicus's atrocities and so on and so on. Like Ghandi said an eye for an eye eventually leads to the whole world being blind...or maybe thats okay for you?@@mrmeener625

Despite Romes revenge, it was never able to lay claim to Germania again and make it part of the Empire
Ever think there was nothing truely of value in Germania that Romans wanted or needed ? and fact is romans ruled limes of Germanicus for over 200 years and thats in Germania
Nor did they want , Germania had nothing of value !
The Romans crossed the Rhine multiple times after Teutoburg, Germania just wasn't worth of the expansion expenses.
@@fabianofilipet7110 doesn’t change that they defeated the Romans at the height of their power. Also sometimes it’s useful to be a low value target
@@TheMan-je5xq doesn't change the fact that romans went west of Rhine and repeatedly defeated the Germanic tribes , The Germanic tribes pulled a Pear Harbor but like Pearl Harbor ,WW2 for US didn't end at Pearl Harbor and Teutoburg wasn't end all of Germanic wars and these tribes after 100 years faded away these weren't the same tribes that invaded Empire in 4th and 5th centuries !

They adopted different fighting styles from their enemies and made it possible to defeat nearly everyone. They gave us (English) the Roman bath, modes of architecture, and coinage and opened our eyes to our enemies. During the Vietnam War, the SAS sent their own observers to make note of the tactics used by the VC, returned to the UK, and employed them wherever necessary.

The Germanic tribes were incredibly lucky.
Germanicus had only 4 legions and asked Emperor Tiberius for 4 more legions, to make Germany "an empty desert" (as Tacitus wrote).
But Emperor Tiberius refused, as he sensed the danger of Germanicus' growing power.
Which general should we send to defeat the German tribes?
Denmarkicus?...no
Sweedenicus?...no
Spainicus...no

Very good video. Well done!
amazing!!
The revenge was not proportionate to the defeat…..no amount of triggered campaigns on the Rhine was gonna rectify 3 legions getting wiped out.
I ain’t no Roman fan, but more than 3 legions of Germans died in those forest for sure, if not they wouldn’t never attacked
Twice as many Germans wiped out compared to the legions.
The loss of numerous German nobles from various tribes.
Scorched earth policy destroying numerous villages.
Arminius suffers numerous defeats and the loss of his wife and son. Eventually losing his own life to betrayal, the irony.
Seems to me they got their revenge just fine.
@@aaronrace7591
Twice as many wiped out over multiple years. 40,000 Germans killed over a few years is not as devastating as 20,000 Romans killed in 3 days.
Dude the Romans killed almost 500k people afther that, so in my opinion "Vendetta" was fullfilled, of course the brutality of the Romans was way too much , no Nation or tribe should suffer like that , now it's time to fight together and not against each other
Arminius was a bitch #spqr
Roma Invicta. Honour to Germanicus. Who showed the Germanic who's boss. Roma is eternal. The Glory of Roma is eternal. And no one will ever be able to break that!!!
Relly excellently presented, especially the narrator.!
Thank you kindly!
The conclusion was Germanic tribes united and formed larger war bands.....took 250 years
Great video, keep it up!!!
Problem is that the Romans, while being able to attack more or less as they wanted, were unable to maintain a permanent presence, and the battle of Idistaviso, while victorious, wasn't decisive.
Rome won like they usually did for much of their history: By industrial power. They had more (well-equipped) plebeians to throw away than most of their rivals had troops, and could lose entire armies just to learn and gain experience, and just tried again and again until they got it right. Most noticeably the western Roman empire fell once it no longer had a surplus of men to serve in the legions, and surplus production to outfit them with.
Reminds me Vietnam and Afeghanistan.
"And when Alexander saw the extent of his domain he wept, for there were no more worlds to conquer."
"And when Rome saw the extent of it's domain it wept, for there were no more rich neighbours to rape, plunder, and enslave."
The Roman Empire were not good guys and it's eventual fate was well deserved.
Most of the times is like that unless they are not Americans in Vietnam..
I think you should study history and NOT INVENT FAIRY TALES!!!!
Germany at that time was an area of woods and swamps... it had no underground resources such as silver or gold, no animals to raise, or good lands to cultivate, but ONLY uncivilized barbarian populations who couldn't even be made to pay a tax as they were poor and wild...
In fact, after Idistaviso the Romans returned to the old border on the Rhine because there was NOTHING beyond it!!!!
In many of the great battles won by the Romans they were outnumbered by their enemies but they won thanks to the Discipline, Training and Tactical Skills of their Generals....
It's all written in history books... but you can also search on the internet... you can find something TRUE and HISTORICAL!!!
Good research.

This is a very abbreviated version of Rome's revenge. There were other battles, and even nearly another Roman annihilation, prevented only by the slickness of the Roman commander.
Never forget Teutoburg hadn''t been a battle, it had been an ambush.

Finally someone mentions it. Romans didn't lose in Germania due to Germans, but due to their inner politics fight.
Varos lost because he led his armies into thick forces on narrow paths and they were extremely stretched out and massing gis troops in the typical Roman formations was impossible. The Germans picked them apart at will. Part of the problem the Romans had was most of them carried the gladius, a very short sword more like a dagger which was ideal in use in formation between shields but not against the long swords of the Germans.
The Romans had a long sword, called a spatha, but only a small percentage of them carried one. After the slaughter of Vairos's legions they all carried spathas when they invaded to get revenge.
Nope !
@@elessartelcontar9415 Varus lost cause he wasn't a General , He wasn't Tiberus . or Drusus or Germanicus not even close and to top it off the 3 legion he had were not Vet legions they were new raised !
What year(s) did this take place?
Much has been said and written about Teutoburg forest but little or nothing about Idistaviso, why?!
Because Germans ignore the aftermath especially how brutal and futile the Resistance was. Every years IT was a one sided slaughter followed Up by a German Sneak Attack to get a win at the end of a campaign
Because Idistaviso was a standard, normal battle, while Teutoburg was an ambush "Thermopylae-style", in which an inferior force prevailed against a superior force by stealth.
The Battle of Teutoburg Forest was a turning point in world history! The Romans may have gotten their ‘revenge’ on Arminius (rich, considering *they* invaded in the first place), but in the end they realized that the price of controlling territory east of the Rhine was simply too high. This is where the borders of the empire would roughly remain for the remainder of it’s rule. Arminius accomplished more than he realized!
There is poetic justice to the fact that it would be the Germanics, ultimately, who Christianized Europe - using the Roman language!🙏🏼
Nonsense. Who christianised the Germanics? And the Spaniards, and the Gauls, and the Brits? Rome.
Rome christianised Europe.

A little bit bland.
Avete letto quello che nella Bibbia si dice dei Romani? (libro dei Maccabei, capitolo 8) E' interessante perchè si capisce quello che le altre popolazioni dell'antichità pensavano dei Romani. Si leggono parole di rispetto e ammirazione per la loro potenza, per la lealtà verso gli alleati e per come era organizzato lo Stato Romano.
Germanicus himself would fall victim to an increasingly unstable paranoid Tiberius. A culture of instability that lasted years and even had Claudius cowering behind drapes when the Praetorian guard arrived announcing his rise to emperor.
Thanks for your contribution! That's an interesting fact

What happened to Armenius?
After the defeat against Germanicus, Arminius continued to fight against the Romans. He engaged in several battles, including the battles of Pontes Longi, Idistaviso, and the Angrivarian Wall. Despite suffering defeats, Arminius was successful in defending Germania against the Romans.
In addition to his conflicts with the Romans, Arminius also had to deal with internal power struggles. He deposed a rival, Maroboduus, the king of the Marcomanni. However, as Arminius’s power grew, it made some Germanic nobles uneasy. Afraid of his increasing influence, these nobles assassinated Arminius in 21 AD

Hold on I thought there wasn't no survivors out of that ambush and once they realize their legions wasn't coming and no communication with them or their cavalry they sent out scouting parties found the bodies and then sent word to Rome and at the same time the Germanic tribes leaders sent the severed head of Varus commanding general of the legions to Rome
yes they were 2000 surviiors of battle and they made it to Fort Aliso which held out for month and made it back across the Rhine after a Night breakout ! Read for yourself the battle for Fort Aliso .
Looks like real life version of Marley vs Eldia or Attack on Titan
Interesting history. What I find even more interesting is human perspective and memory, and how selective, biased, and incomplete it can be. Hardly anybody remembers these huge invasions and titanic battles after the Teutoburg Forest Massacre had taken place. Thus, the necessity for video documentaries like this to flesh out people's very limited understanding of history. Isn't it odd how thoroughly the shock of the initial ambush and massacre eclipsed almost all historical memory of the subsequent military campaigns by the Romans to get their revenge and restore their honor, which the DID, in spades? Certain events in human history, if they make a big enough impression on the human mind, overshadow other events which may be of even greater magnitude.
I love those tribal peoples fighting to preserve their way of the life,their elderly,women and children...Their freedom !!! Im proud bearer of the Gothic personal name that stayed with Poles , Czechs,Slovacs and Serbs and lives to this very day passed down through generations ...probably 2000 years old ...Thinking about it how hundreds of Goths went from Gotwald down to Poland than Ukraine and down to Balkans and Pannonia and Italy and how they were the force that God used to sort out the wicked Roman Empire makes me feel very privileged...Goths did appear on historical stage some centuries later ( under that name ) but Im pretty sure that migrations from Scandinavia went flowless towards Gaul and other areas to the south ,east and west ..
Just like any other nation, the germanic people were not a poor disenfranchised people who were oppressed by the romans. Everyone called everyone else barbarians in those days. The "tribal people " as you call them aren't anything special. Stop smoking the amess culture weed.
😂serbs don’t exist in that time 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
and in the end it was Eastern Roman Empire that defeated them same goths and vandals and thru them, on ash heap of history ! and get this my slavic friend Rome was empire even at republic stage and no other lasted longer from early 200bc -500AD and if you count the East Roman Empire lasted until 1453 ! mean while your slavic nations faded back and Forth to history ! 105 years ago there was no Poland Czechs or Slovac nations on the map ! mean while romans had allies outside Empire Jutes -Denmark , Irish , Luga -Poles . I think you need reread your History.
The Romans had Political Generals and that resulted in a number of disasters - but - each time that happened - the Romans made a point of coming back and getting revenge.

Every single Roman General was a politician. There was No such Thing AS seperation between politics and the Army in the Republic and the Empire only much much later did they divide and that resulted in barbarian Generals Controlling puppets emperors

AVE ROMA
The Romans excelled at warfare on open ground while the Germanic tribes preferred to fight the Romans in forests and marshes where the Romans couldn’t maneuver. The Romans killed thousands and burned everything they saw but there was no actual civilization to conquer and nothing of value to take other than slaves. With huge forests to conceal them, the Germanic tribes could resist indefinitely. Fighting the Germanic tribes until doomsday, just to kill them and take slaves, was too much effort (and risk) for too little return.
So they burnt the forest? because like 95% of germania were dense forest by then. A big cold jungle.
What does that mean?
Rome should have pushed north and east, to the Baltic coast and the Vistula. It would have been costly but prevented the Germanic invasions that came in the 4th and 5th centuries.
if the could have they would have done so. coulda woulda shoulda is futile. they were never going to get away with such a large scale theft and oppression indefinitely..no one has

About the romans losing a legion in Scotland...did they didn't they? Many historians say they did...I dont know..they say that's why hadrien built his wall..so they say....
the 9th Hispania was not destroyed , it didn't have full man power to remain as full legion and was merged with 4th Hispania at the time ( not all of them legions raised by J.Ceasar lasted till the end and retired , Much like other nations famous regiments were not kept , how many of George Washington units are still with us today ( i believe only 2).

It would help if you could properly pronounce the name of the river RHINE.Iit is not "rain" but rather rye like the bread ending in a strong N like in the number 9. Get it?
Germani was never completely conquered by the Romans. The Romans would only intrude to the Rhine. Beyond that point was too dangerous. Later it was the so called barbarians who would protect the Roman empire
Even to this day, Germany is divided by the history. The areas that were occupied by the invaders still produce, and drink, wine, as the Romans did. The free areas still produce, and drink, beer.
It was not dangerous, it was useless beyond the Rhyne. Swamps and forests only.

There is so much division and hatred and laziness and lack of care for others in this world it makes me f’n sick.
More than half my life is over.
In my profession guys die in their late 50’s to mid 60’s.
I probably got 20 years left if I’m lucky.
I’ve done a lot of bad 💩 in my life and I wish I could take It all back.
For the remainder I want to help people as much as I can.
I’d like it to be known that I care.

You believe that 99% do not care about what others have done on their behalf? I would suggest that you either change your affinity group or expand it ...

But the Germans got their revenge too 450 years later sacking Rome and conquering Gaul
they were not the same tribes 1st century !
Don't ever forget what Hanibal or Attila the Hun did to the Romans also! Undefeated???
Arminius foi um traidor. Mereceu seu destino inflingido por Germanicus.
Why against his own famuly and clan
Tiberois was dead, you said?
Rome never really got a grip on the German woods. We mainly get information from the Roman side. A lot of propaganda and spin made the Romans look better than they really were against other warrior cultures like the Germanic Tribes.
I mean, other than Teutoburg, the German tribes got their asses kicked by the Romans in every engagement. It just wasn't practical for Rome to hold Germania, sort of like everything north of Hadrian's wall.
@@Lawlzinator It's not at all established that the German tribes got their butt kicked in every battle and scuffle : that's just the point : that's what the Romans claim , but there's no hard evidence for it. It's precisely why some doubt the veracity of these claims by the sole writers of history in that part of Europe : the Romans.
Obviously the Romans held the Germans back for many years. And don't forget Marcus Aurelius who defeated the Marcomani. And maybe even the Quadi.@@guntertorfs6486
lol c'mon with those advantages in numbers and weaponry my border collie couldnt fail. as soon as the ratios changed the romans had their asses kicked into embarrassment...look at them now@@Lawlzinator
@@rickmorgan1441 Look at Germany who lost two wars on two instead and in the same century as well. One because the Italians mauled them in Vittorio Veneto .
In the Lunderdoof's diaries :
" In Vittorio Veneto, Austria did not lose a battle, but lose the war and itself, dragging Germany in its fall. Without the destructive battle of Vittorio Veneto, we would have been able, in a military union with the Austro-Hungarian monarchy, to continue the desperate resistance through the whole winter, in order to obtain a less harsh peace, because the Allies were very fatigued."
And btw Romans were kicked where by Germans ? Also Italy may not be in good shape today but it's still a G8 country. Hardly as you are trying it to pass. LOL
Damn, you plageurised the Invicta channel really well.
100% ver batum
Ironic - The revenge of the Romans against the Germanic tribe was led by a general named Germanicus. Arminius and his people were barbarians because they defended their land from the Roman imperialists? If they were barbarians, then they were fighting a civilised enemy that behaved like barbarians at times. Easter cones to mind
Like i wrote in another comment , one has to take the accounts , written by Romans , with more than a grain of salt. They were masters at propaganda.
history written by the surviving winners.
Just like any other nation, the germanic people were not a poor disenfranchised people who were oppressed by the romans. Everyone called everyone else barbarians in those days. Stop smoking the amess culture weed.
I love that you dont tell us what happen in the forrest....
