I seriously doubt it. GERMANY did not exist until the nationalist (Leftist) revolution in the XIX Century. If you mean Germania, you are wrong too, as all the Germanic lands on the West of the Rhine were part of the Empire. Germanic as any other, just part of the Empire, like California is part of the USA. And not to forget: Germany, the region, actually WAS the Roman Empire, until 1806 when it was dissolved during the Napoleonic Wars. ;)

So did the Welsh and English, the Romans never conquered the western parts of Wales and England, they left us with taxes though, enough said. Grrrrrr.

That would be cool to find Germanic tribal weapons. Im sure its common knowledge in that area that artifacts are still being found today. Its no secret

I have seen Roman ghosts there - naked, because the Germans robbed them of their clothes !

well it clearly looks like todays special forces are more like the romans, and the the ghost warriors are more like the prepared civilians (aka people standing up against black ops .. ) and Frank Ledwidge as Ken Jones are so pathetically pretending to have the skills of that they dream to have, the ones only some none military people sometimes have ..

Good one, it's truly SAD that so few actually "Get" the joke.

Nice. 😏

My Latin teacher used to call him "Herman the German" because that was actually his name. Arminius is just a Latinized version.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. It was assumed that boys taken before age 12 wouldn't remember the country of their origin, being an asset to the country who captured them. Arminious did remember, was angry with his family and neighbors for not fighting harder to keep their families together. I wonder how many seasons of Romans coming to collect the boys he witnessed and dreaded.

I see your bias. THE ROMANS. ROME. And Arminius sure sounds more noble than herman the german.

Really, because according to some, the dna evidence shows that the original inhabitants almost completely died out during the black death as they had no immunity to the plague where as the later arrivals to europe became dominant due to being at least partially resistant to the plague.

@@Sturminfantrist The Romans came as far as the Elbe, not beyond the Elbe.

Exactly 😂

Brother, I agree with you. But times have changed. They sure didn't have a way to kill at distance effectively, especially at night.

That depends on what our ROEs & objectives are & how long we are in the area... If it's a hunter-killer mission, rules say we put them down & then disappear after we put a calling card on each body... The Abu Sayyaf KNEW 1st SFG wasn't going to play with them in the Philippines - we made it VERY clear...

@user-cx1lv3ji6f we don't spend any more ToT than we have to. If we're doing a sweep-&-search, 1 of our team is standing there with a stopwatch calling out the time over coms or the radio (usually 1 of our 18Es) while we search & someone is writing down everything we call out... Once time is up, we disappear back into the jungle... UNLESS we are looking for something specific... then we keep searching while the overwatch keeps us updated... That's why it's called a retrieval team - & if you ask what we're retrieving, we literally tell you it's none of your business, lmfao... & we didn't gaf what your rank was when we said it 😂😂😂... If we were doing a hostage snatch, ANYONE on target got put down. Except the hvt we wanted. We ALREADY know if there are civilians around or not. The Abu Sayyaf didn't have civilians around, which meant anyone we found got wasted & we didn't stop till we hit the LOA. 1500 meter kill-sweep is just that - no need to explain... I used to LOVE the interdiction missions, because the ASG would always switch camps at night. That meant they couldn't see tripwires. We would toss an APM into each hooch with the timer set for 30 seconds. Set it in the middle of the room - timer ticks down & 8 tripwires shoot out in all directions. Once armed, it has a mousetrap setup in it, so if you even move it with a stick, it explodes. APMs are a much smaller/better version of the bouncing betty - every team guy carried 2. If we had to break contact, we pulled a rolling retreat on purpose - as last man pulled back, he sets 1 to 10 secs & tosses it over his shoulder... At 10 secs, the mine shoots out the tripwires & ARMS. 500 lil ball bearings inside... If you were DUMB enough to follow us, you're going to have a BAD day... The asg tried to put a bounty on our heads - but the $10k they offered was WORTHLESS, because our chain or command offered a cool $1 million to any Filipino who gave us info that led to the capture or death of ANY verified ASG member. I still have the leaflets & posters our 37 foxes put out during our psyop blitz... 😂😂😂 I can't say any more - it violates our OPSEC. And MANY of us who were in on the Philippine ops have been sent into Taiwan now, just WAITING for China to twitch 😂🤫👻🤫😂

It's honestly almost impossible to tell how these events really happened. History is written by the victors and sometimes they exaggerate for the publicity just like today

They tended to put the heads in alcohol or oil. I have read of one that was preserved in salt to be brought to their leader

Salt stops the smell, 😂

@@Archangelsword still 900 miles with the rate of travel it would take months through heat damp etc it would still reek. Get a piece of raw salted meat and carry it around in your pocket unsealed for even just a few weeks and see how popular you are. Not to mention that the tribes probably wouldn't have taken the time and trouble to preserve the head.

Honey would preserve the head if completely covered.

Germanicus went and slaughtered his way all over Germania.

It was Primarily the Chatti he took by Surprise , He used negotiations and helped Defend a Tribe against Arminius , who of course was Killed several years later by a Rival Chief. But he never made it all the way through and knew he would be driven out, But in the end the Germans ended Rome permanently , just as every invading horde ended up that tried to take them on. , As Wild as the Germanic Tribes were and constantly combating rival Tribes they were repulsed by the Brutality of Rome and felt they were unjust , duplicitous and treacherous and determined to subjugate , The Germans just wanted to be left alone. Rome was a brutal expansionist and genocidal Empire (Carthage) this allowed Europe to become the modern West of European Nations@@AnthonyTobyEllenor-pi4jq

@@jamesberlo4298 I don't disagree, I first heard about the teuroberg massacre when I read ,"I Claudius", by Robert Graves then read more and more and then I found myself driving through the area whilst visiting engineering firms in Northern Germany and talking to the locals, they told me of caches of coins found and rusty old weapons and then we have the British army officer who nailed the location of the massacre. Rome needed constant expansion otherwise it would wither and die, we see the same nowadays with the EU and their constant expansionist policies !

They were eventually pushed back out though.

He even taxed the Frisians so much that at one point all they had to offer was their women as nothing was left. So they rose up.

Indeed, Varys was a military nobody, just an administrator and tax collector not a soldier.

It is also one of the traditional Zulu weapons. The hard round wooden head can stop a knee from moving through sheer pain. Even if the bone is not greatly damaged the brain can lose control of it. Then you fall and are despatched as you are used to gain height for the next victim. If it should ever happen, of course.

You got a time machine? Because the place is now called "Germany, the Netherlands and Scandinavia"... And we do have streets with concrete and all. We do have Romans though, but we call them "reenactors" ;)

​@@arthurjones9580 It's Aldi clothing. I noticed a long tartan shirt dress that totally looked like something I got from Aldi - the most German of all supermarket. 😂😂

Are some of those German tribesmen wearing Pendleton shirts? Some had lovely trendy hairstyles, I especially like the ones with buns. They would not look out of place waiting tables in Los Angeles.

What a load of fanciful crap.

Well, the fact is that the "Romans" were in a large part Britons, non-Pictish scots or Germanics. They also weren't up to "conquer the world". They went until they found a place there, it wasn't worth fighting for. Furthermore, they usually build walls that were meant as border, just like the modern borders, but back then they didn't have barbed wire. So, Stone it was. We tend to have a very distorted image of what the Romans really were. Also with our own identities. Every single European country (I bet, including Italy) has its legends about how our respective ancestors heroically defeated the Romans, from the Picts in Scotland to the Batavians here in the Netherlands. Both have actually one curious thing in common: Neither the modern day Scots nor the modern day Dutch have any relation to Picts or Batavians. The Picts have left pretty little genetic traces, while modern Scots are mostly related to the ancient Irish Celts and medieval Danes. And the Batavians left little trace either, replaced by a coalition of several late Germanic tribes, the Franks. Which after 500 years of Roman civilization were just as Roman as the Romans were "Germanic". TL;DR: Modern Europeans are genetically more related to the Romans than to any "mythical" ancestor that we fancy ourselves to be offspring off. And by Roman, I mean the huge mix of Germanic, Celtic and Mediterranean that was spread across the best part of the Continent for up to 500 years.

sounds pretty simple to me....

Sounds stupid to me, why clear a forest to have a battle, they might clear ground around and about, but forests?

It does seem so stupid ..your coming to my country..we ain't changing anything

How do you know they were exactly _your_ ancestors? (Real European here, BTW)

@@VFella What??? 😂 And cool I'm glad you are but unfortunately it appears you don't seem to understand how deep and rich European history really is ok I'm a bit of a historian myself Also it's pretty self explanatory my guy

Well, the word "Hari" means warrior so it could either be a tribe or a warrior society.

Nah, celts didn't look scandanvian and they were conquered by romans

@@jasrajsandhu1658 bs. So conquered, that Rome built a wall across England to contain them. You are funny, why do their looks matter?. They were their own People, not simply Celts.

@@Soylentgreenispeople999 they didn't look scandanvian so their history is boring, also they got wiped out by vikings later

@@jasrajsandhu1658 so what, were talkong Roman late era, Vikings came 1000 years or so later when the Picts were no longer a people. They were not wiped out. I am sure many people in the UK especually Scottland desended from them and don' t even know it. No their history is anything but boring.

@@jasrajsandhu1658 man, you're tripping. Vikings were like a 1000 plus years after the Picts and Romans duked it out.

Because there was no such thing as Germania, it was just made up by the Romans to describe the whole area.

It kept Rome out of further expansion into Germania !!! … AND , because of all the Roman wars , most of the able bodied were killed and left the scraps to breed … that’s why Italians have so many medical maladies … and that’s Karma !!!
