Battle of the Teutoburg Forest (9 AD) Germanic tribes Vs Roman Empire | Total War: Rome 2 cinematic

The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest (German: Schlacht im Teutoburger Wald, Hermannsschlacht, or Varusschlacht, Italian: Disfatta di Varo), described as the Varian Disaster (Clades Variana) by Roman historians, took place in the Teutoburg Forest in 9 CE, when an alliance of Germanic tribes ambushed and decisively destroyed three Roman legions and their auxiliaries, led by Publius Quinctilius Varus. The alliance was led by Arminius, a Germanic officer of Varus' auxilia. Arminius had acquired Roman citizenship and had received a Roman military education, which enabled him to deceive the Roman commander methodically and anticipate the Roman army's tactical responses.

Funny how Varus, at that time and place having good reasons not to do it, dismissed Segestes warnings about Arminius and his involvement in a plot to destroy the legions. He eventually kills himself just like his father have done it before.

Arminius' story is really incredible. Born barbarian, raised as a roman, betrayed the empire for the sake of his "country", and eventually got killed by its own people. But as a fan of roman history, I feel I can share some useful insights here... Romans adventures across Rhine started to secure the empire's borders, not to conquer more territories. Germanic tribes were often ostile, that is why romans got there and tried to "romanize" them. That is something I think people tend to forget, but it explains a lot if you consider that the power of the two sides were much different. German tribes had to rely on ambushes to cope with roman legions, which were military superior at that time. Teutoburg was an ambush on a thin, long line of legionaries, that had no time to prepare for battle and were marching with their families (yes, there were plenty of women and children as well). That defeat has been avenged as some other users correctly pointed out, but Germanicus Julius Caesar was getting too popular and was sent far away from the emperor... After that romans gave definitely up on the romanization of that area, which was deemed not possible anymore. On the other side, romans crossed the rhine whenever they had to. Indeed after that period the empire continued to take slaves from the germanic tribes anyhow. Later on some protectorate were established and romans successfully fought other battles (e.g. Harzhorn)... At last we all know that things started to creak for the romans... I believe it's just beautiful how history teach us that the balance among countries is a cycle. No one is the most powerful forever and, sometimes, what goes around comes around!

I like how one legion is taunting the ball of fire rolling towards him.

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

Hmmm, somebody didn't study the battle much before making this. The Romans were not near their camp and were actually on a different road than they thought they were taking. The road rounded around a hill, the Kalkriese. On the other side the road was a swamp. The Germanic tribes built fake extensions of the hill, behind which were bulwarks to hide the Germanic troops. This false extension of the hill narrowed the road for at least half a mile, forcing a bottleneck where the legions could only march 2-3 wide, which destroyed their cohesive battle formations. Arminius (Arnim or Hermann his more likely name) was raised as a hostage in Rome and served in the Roman army, so he knew their strengths and weaknesses. The Germans allowed the calvary vanguard through and waited until about half the army was in the bottleneck then attacked from both the the front and rear and their fortifications. Parts of the Roman army panicked into the swamp where they were bogged down and easy pickings for spearmen and raiders who knew the swamp. The battle lasted anywhere from 2-5 days, and evidence finds the Romans actually built temporary fortifications in 2 different places (as they always carried fortification material, and also used carts from their baggage train). About 400 legionnaires escaped, and in the revenge campaigns of 12 and 15 AD, as well as in 34-35 AD, they recovered at least 75 others who had been made slaves. Many dozens who were captured were sacrificed. The loss shook Augustus and he began a mental downward spiral. Supposedly, in a delirium on his deathbed his last words were, "Varus, Varus return to me my legions." Varus is often portrayed as a bumbling fool, but he is the victim of Roman writers 30 to 90 years after the battle whose Roman egos needed a scapegoat and reported the battle from mostly secondhand sources who were political rivals of the faction Varus came from.

[@enriconicolafasciani9151]

They were not "barbariams". In Germany there is a city that is older than Rome: Trier. Only because the Germans were not invading, looting, colonisong and enslaving others and then burning down the villages and then demanding taxes, like the Romans have done all the time, dosent mean that they would have been "barbarians". At least not in the modern sense of whar barbarian means because "barbarian" back then simply meant/was a word for someone who is not a citizen of the Roman Empire as far as I know.

[@MusaMansu]

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

@@kathyrene5075 Yes, Varus was warned, but the traitor was a known political rival of Arminius and Arminius had 20 years loyal military service to Rome behind him. Varus was not an idiot. The Roman accounts making him out that way were written decades after the battle at the real beginning of imperial expansion and are heavily tainted by Roman ego which could not accept being beaten by "barbarians." Varus had led legions in Syria with success, and quelled a rebellion in Judea. He just happened to be the guy who was in the wrong place at the wrong time. More credit needs to be given to Arnim/Hermann (his more likely Germanic name) for his brilliant battle plan and leadership, rather than bashing Varus.

[@ModelTrainOutsider]

@john doe No, Varus didn't lead them into the woods. He led them along the road between a mountain (hill) and the woods/swamp area. This was the road he was advised to follow by his guides who were part of the plot. The battle lasted at least 3 nights and maybe as many as 5- that is from the people who run the battlefield site in Bramsche, Germany. It was an intentional bottleneck because Hermann/Arminius knew the strengths and weaknesses of the Roman Legion marching formations. Roman historians who are quoted on the battle wrote many years after the battle (Tacitus, the most quoted, was 90 years later) and scapegoating was their primary goal as Roman ego could not accept being beaten by "barbarians." It had to be bad leadership. Varus was not an Alexander or Napoleon, but he was competent (and ruthless), based on his previous military campaigns. He was in a totally new environment and was put in the hands of the one man who plotted the betrayal. Yes, Varus was warned, but as I wrote previously, the guy warning him was from a tribe considered to be in rebellion and Hermann/Arminius was a long-standing commander of the Roman army. The plan was well laid and well executed. Sometimes, you just have to give credit to the other general. And, to answer other criticisms of my post- Augustus DEFINITELY had mental issues in his later years. His own contemporary biographers mentioned his episodes and that the defeat at Kalkriese haunted him to his death.

Nice vid, but let me correct you in some point. In the begining more likely, that only Arminius's auxiliary forces (who's main task was to scout forward ) attacked the romans, and after the chieftains realised the real opportunity, they joined the assault as well. The battle was fought for several day, and in each day, Arminius ambushed the romans further weakening their lines. The only hope for the romans was, that Varus sent out his cavalry for reinforcements, but unfortunately they were ambushed as well.

Yes, yes and YES! My favorite battle in one of my favorite games done by my new favorite KZbinr! PS: The person who does the voice at the start of the video, is that you and when do you plan on doing a face reveal?

[@SandokanBattles]

No no It's not me, I've got terrible voice, It's lector from game, don't know who it is, and no, I'm not planning to reveal my face, but my mom saying i'm very handsome :P (I don't have a lot woman subscribes so no point :P hehe) Greetings

[@lenavoit5206]

sandokan1610 I also wanted to know if you will be doing historical battles in the Napoleonic era using Napoleon Total war and maybe using the Napoleon total war 3 mod? Sorry if I ask too many questions as I can see this channel growing very quickly.

[@SandokanBattles]

I used to try but have some problems on Napoleon, but I will try again soon, Greetings

Alex B. You really think that there is honor in a battle or in the war? Don't think that. There is no heroes. Just murders and death, that's all. Welcome to the real world, where only humans are able to extinct humans.

[@LiquidOzelot]

Like...there was honor in Hiroshima or Nagasaki? Honor, that's a bad thing, becouse of the honor so many people died. You can think that the honor is noble, but is stupid.

[@amaris7486]

Hmm nice to see that the people here all just complain about Armenius. Well, decades of oppression in 100 of countries, enslavement, mass murder and exploitation brought the Romans. And then they kidnap children to train them like animals to do their dirty work. but not with Armenius he was and is a Cheruscian and he was the one who gathered the tribes and got it for the Romans as they love it the most from the back, because then the story spread throughout the Roman Empire and others were subdued fast courage and do it like him. And what's going on the Germanic peoples like Celts were put there is not nonsense, look at the great migration of the peoples times exactly and the story is the thousands and thousands of years old, the Celts come from here. Ireland england scotland there the celtic tribe and culture only lasted longer because of the situation of this country and that they were violently converted to christianity. But what can one explain the people of desen story just a few centuries old and can not see over the edge of the plate. Well, Caesar said it was already true and what a lie is the siger decides not the loser or with words of brennus "vae victis."

The Battle of Teutoburg or the "Varus disaster" is a turning point in history, the crushing victory of the Germans over the Romans resulted in the fall of the empire four centuries later and Europe will become Germanic, there is a giant statute of the hero Arminius in the forest of the same name, according to Tacitus Roman historian, 20,000 Roman soldiers are killed.

funny how my ancestors looked like in different to the rome people lmao

Mine too lol. French Canadian here. Origin Germania. The REAL motherland.

[@DarkKhagan]

Excellent video, I love this battle portrayal. I think that it's funny how the schools in many western nations of the world usually defend the "Bloodthirsty" Romans. They call the Celts, Germans and Huns savage and ruthless. What were the ROMANS ancient pacifists?? LOL! 😂 When i used to play RTW/BI, I always played as a Barbarian Faction slaughtering as many Romans as i could and enjoying every minute of the mayhem! 😎

I hope this will be good movie, but I have big doubts (this warrrior women in trailer)

[@ianwliamsoianwiliamson4467]

Realy enjoying the netflix series

[@loukes116]

It was amazing.

[@loukes116]

@@SandokanBattles It's a TV show, i found it incredible, what's wrong with a warrior woman? The Germanic tribes were some of the few in history to allow woman as warriors.

[@enderis526]

It's just a TV show, and I enjoyed it, but the idea of a woman who's never fought before running through slicing and dicing legionaries was pretty ridiculous. Overall a decent show though, I'd give it probably a 7/10

[@pauloesteves7002]

Os romanos tinham uma organização em combate muito sofisticada e disciplinada, com a linha de frente revesando a todo momento.

[@anderso.nteles]

O Império Romano começou a ruir depois que as legiões perderam a disciplina.

Видать серьёзная битва была в Тевтобургском лесу, в близи Калькризи, три легиона пали смертью храбрых!

[@skeptic781]

mostly showing romans kill germans in hand to hand combat, considering the casualties I think you should show more romans dying.

[@Rick2010100]

The Germanic warrior will have worn the typical Germanic combat wear of that time and not been topless. The wear for warrior was a a leather combo with leather trousers a linen shirt with a leather jacket. There were no head coverings back then either

Im sure many of you would agree with me that they should show videos like these in history class in grades 5-12 to keep students interested in what happened and the names of the generals. Videos alone are much more informative in just 5 mines then a hole hour.:D:D Granted i know reading includes more/better details.
