We continue our coverage of the Germanic Wars and the fallout of the Varian disaster at the Battle of Teutoburg Forest. The episode begins with the winter of 14 AD as Germanicus plans an ambitious series of military campaigns against the Germanic tribes. His invasion will first seek to isolate and demolish elements of the enemy coalition, driving a wedge between them, before going in for the killing blow against Arminius himself.

I have to say folks, prior to researching this series I didn't quite grasp just how punishing the Roman campaigns of vengeance were... its stunning. But Arminius and the Germanic tribes did not lay down without a fight and will be delivering their fair share of counterpunches in this bloody brawl.

My favourite thing about Germanicus was his willingness to admit that he didn't always have the answer to every problem and that he'd never expect his soldiers to do something he wasn't willing to do himself. Pretty much everything you'd want in a leader.

To be fair though, we only have a VERY biased viewpoint on him. Roman "historiography" is always to be taken with a major dosis of skepticism. For romans, the fact alone that he was born a roman made him more or less superhuman and romans always tried to put certain "virtues" of the state and depict it in the characters. Most of roman historiography was less about depicting actual history and more about educating the reader in roman "virtues". Take for example Sertorius, a famous roman that lead iberian tribes against rome and was later defeated by Pompei the great. In the stories we have of him he is depicted as a great roman that "used" the barbarians under him for a roman goal because he was (initally) fighting Sulla who was depicted as bad by later roman historiography. Reading the report and putting a checklist of "how shood a roman be 1&1" feels like going point after point, it is really interesting. Plutarch especially is guilty of that, he always put a "great roman" and compared him against a "famous greek" to show how supirior romans were. Roman literature is a fascinating topic. We always have to assume that these "war reports" made by the romans against non-romans are more like the "german propaganda of WW2" then actual historical facts. Nearly always its momentary setback, glorious last stand, heroic delaying action instead of calling things a retreat or flight for example. Reading between the lines and most importantly getting archeological foundings to abck up certain claims is what brings the history alive and creates facts. I would always be very careful with the romans and their "characterization" of certain people. A famous example of how narrative can shift is the famous paris news headlines in 1814 after napoleon escaped his exile and returned to france: It went from (based on my memory) "the devil landed in southern france" over "the pretender has taken marseiles" to "the former emperor has taken Lyon" to "His majesty the emperor will arrive in paris the next morning". It is similar with roman literature. Context of who is currently in pwoer when something is written and how things are remembered are very important.

In recent years, near the river Rhine, archeologists found the remains of what is believed to be the main Roman naval base that was used to launch the amphibious assault in Northern Germania as well as for logistical support during the campaign. They even found a largely intact Roman ship that can now be admired in a museum in Utrecht, Netherlands, close to the location of the findings.

it didn't require surgical precision. romans were using really good scouting under Germanicus because he was quite thorough, so they knew how long it should take to get where. Just tell his subordinate 'go three days north on the river, then start pillaging south. we'll wait 3 days and then attack and meet in the middle. aside of that it was just using couriers and scouts to keep in contact. hannibal was doing stuff like that before even crossing the alps. "go upriver a day's march, then cross and come back, attack at dawn."

Can we just take a moment to appreciate just how good Arminius was as a general? Germanicus kinda steals the lime-light for a number of reasons, but if he had been any less of a mastermind, Arminius would have absolutely curb-stomped the Romans.. Again! The Germanic tribes executed an almost perfect faint retreat AND had the discipline not to over extend themselves once it was clear the rest of the legions showed up and their trap failed. I mean, that's some next level command & control right there. It's kinda sad that Arminius remains a relatively obscure historical figure. I genuinely believe he could have been a massive 'problem' for Rome if he had faced anyone other than Germanicus. I think he's shown the potential to be ranked among Hannibal and Attila!

Eh, I would not put him on par with Hannibal. Hannibal's battle of Cannae is undoubtedly the greatest victory anyone has ever achieved against the Romans on Roman territory. Only a handful of people have beaten Rome right in front of their door step. Arminius was an amazing general, but he and his Germanic tribes were successful in large part due to the Romans fighting on an unfamiliar terrain against an enemy who was born in it.

The reason is quite simple actually. The Teutoburg disaster put a definitive halt to roman expansionism in the region, arguably changing the course of History and forcing the empire into a policy of territorial defense by relying on the limes. Germanicus' campaigns on the other hand were nothing more than a large scale vendetta and, while highly successful in that purpose, didn't benefit Rome in the slightest in the long run. History only remembers the causes of present realities, and Germanicus' campaigns, aside from furthering anti-roman sentiments, did not cause anything meaningful enough to have a direct effect on History.
Arminius really was a sharp fella with quite a bit of nerve to oppose Rome so openly and successfully for as long as he did, when he did.
Had Arminius succeeded a second time he would have really put fear into Rome and gone down in history as one of the greatest underdogs with the likes of Hannibal.

Invicta , great work but you miss one important thing , Germanicus had grand scheme . He will campaign from spring to fall keep german tribes focus on him which means only in winter were german tribes free of the romans , in other words they could not hunt or farm and as weight of 1 tribe felt cold and hunger of winter it caused another tribe to help , there upon when Germanicus fell on them they were already weakened and so forth ! That alone caused major break in German tribes breaking again into factions ! Germanicus campaigns of 15-16-17AD was not only won in the field but using nature and the seasons against german tribes.
I can't even imagine what the soldiers of the Legion felt when they found the eagle of the 19th Legion.

In Britain , especially in Wales and London, a lot of male DNA haplogroups such as EV-13 and J2b2 were found, haplogroups very common among Albanians who are paleo balkanic. It is considered as " illyrian soldiery" by historians. Either Roman army had lot's of Illyrian Roman legionnaires and auxiliaries when it invaded Britain or they came later
I see what you did there. I appreciate the General Grevious reference.
