I like history, but unlike some people here I don´t find the Romans admireable at all lol
Amazing
This was very entertaining in a horrible way!
This video seems a little biased on your part , for example how do you call that 42:01 flush with “ victory” when they had to flee back after taking so many loses and defeated ?
love the video and the LENGTH , love it
Baby put the kids to bed new marche just dropped
Thanks!
I wish you had a platlist of all your roman content in chronological order.
Germanicus the GOAT
very informative ❤❤, love these detailed long format videos
Great video.
What happened after this? Will there be a part 3 after it?
As always am happy to see another video of epic history. Last stand so epic for the Roman soldiers. From the 300 Sparta to Julius Ceaser epic survival when he was fighting Gallic wars and now this…🎉
This is the best presentation of the Roman campaigns in Germania I've ever seen. Outstanding!
Foul me once shame on you
Foul me twice shame on me
Where is part one?
This channel is a gem!
Caecina is a badass the fact that he turned a possible defeat to victroy and didn't let his men lose themselves and kept it together as well as be decisive when it was need is just incredible. Thank you so much for introducing me to him. I feel like there is alot of roman generals who are super great but don't always get recognition for it.
cool
That was good stuff
Whether you be Roman or Barbarian note this well: Lack of discipline will be your undoing everytime
When an Eagle falls, the German boars and wolves stomp and chant. When the Eagle falls an entire Flock will pursue them no matter how far they ran. Trees and Swamps shield Germanic Tribal Fauna, except from gazing eyes of Roman Aquila. Perched atop branches and lofty skies, The Roman Eagles fly high, they come to Strike.
SPQOR INVICTA 🦅💯🔥
Need part three!
Do you have a link to that map?

Babe wake up historymarche posted
Good video, but you forgot to mention that Germanicus fleet was largely destroyed in a storm during their retreat from Germania, making it a rather hollow victory for Rome in the end.
Great work, thank you.
I always feel a sense of dread when we start talking about the legions that fought the Germanic tribes in those treacherous swamps, I can't imagine the fear and intensity and exhaustion.
coomente fore the asgods
"honor"? C'mon mate..
Please mind : Germanic tribes were the ancestors of the Germans, but Germans in in a more precise sense developped 800 years later after the split up of the Franc`s empire.
Wonderful content. Thank you.
Another brilliant video! 👍🏻 thank you!
comment
Excellent, your quality and detailed accounts has improved.
So this is what being addicted to something feels like huh? Strange… but in a good way.
Caecina Literally puts an Uno reverse card on Arminius
Where are the other parts?
Historymarche I can't wait in the next video that there are some unfinished episodes such as:
Rise of Caesar Augustus #6
Prince Eugene of Savoy #5
Hannibal #20
The Anarchy #4
The Lost Eagles Part 3
May this comment to be a sacrifice to the algorithm!
Keep up with the good work mate!
Have to give Arminius his due, he proved that he was a very capable leader and general here.
The Difference between Warriors and Soldiers.
Warriors are fighting for Glory – for their reputations – for loot.
Soldiers fight – because it is their job – and they are very, very, very good at it.
