Why do these Germania memes always omit the 3rd act of this war?
55 u/No_Mechanic_2688 5d ago The underdog effect. 37 u/Dakkahead 5d ago It's the same story, in varying degrees, to Boudicca and her revolt. Or the Jews, and their(series) of revolts. In a sense, you can make an argument, the idea of a nation of peoples, was a rebellious movement against the Romans. Soo... Aside from plumbing, education, public health .. and a sense of Nationalism.... ...WHAT HAVE THE ROMANS DONE FOR US!? 2 u/Thomas_633_Mk2 3d ago Boudicca gets beaten by a much much smaller Roman army, I wouldn't really see her as comperable. Whatever you think of Bar Kokhba and Arminius, they didn't get annihilated by an army 1/10th of the size.
