I like the double meaning of the Wolf in this story. It is a symbol of Rome, but it also is a wild animal in his homeland. Arminius is very much like the wolf.

[@Amalung54]

Sorry, I think you're mistaken. The wolf isn't the Roman wolf but the Germanic Fenris Wolf which will come to end the world at Ragnarög. Old Nordic saga common to all germanics, scandinavians and all other tribes of Nothern Europe. This wolf will come from uitgard to destroy midgard, the world of the humans...

[@snakeenjoyingacanofbeans5219]

double meaning

[@Amalung54]

No it's not! End of the world, everything goes down when the wolf appears. This means the Fenris Wolf, a mythical being of Germanic mythology, who freed himself from his bonds on the day of Ragnarög and caused chaos. Just the end of the world and the gods - Ragnarög / Völuspa. Ragnarög, the end of the world and the appearance of the wolf, is a fundamental part of the archaic Germanic / Scandinavian concept of ancient religion. In the opposite the Roman wolf just nourished Remus and Romulus, but is not part of the old non-Christian Roman religion and therefore does not play a role in "Barbarians" as Arminius says, everything goes down sometime....

[@snakeenjoyingacanofbeans5219]

It literally explains it both ways in the show. I knew what Fenrir was when I was six. Trying to do something simple and on the nose would only impress a midwit.

Everything I know about battle...I learned from you. -- What do we fight for? I often asked you that. Some fight for what used to be. And others for what is to come. Or for love We fight for honor. We fight for glory. We fight for our freedom. Some fight for their children. Still others fight for their gods. The key thing is that we can only win if we're in complete control of our emotions. If we have a crystal-clear strategy. You must maintain order in your ranking while destroying that of the enemy. Whatever we fight for...we pay the price in blood. We all die...the guilty...and the innocent. And when all is lost...you still need the help of the gods. Your impregnable armor became your largest burden. But the most important thing...is to recognize your enemy's greatest weakness. And bring all your strengt down on this point. -Take my armor. Are you sure, Dominus? You are a free man. Get out of here. And your biggest weakness...was your trust in me. I ask my self...What were you fighting for? And was it worth it? Pater... PATER!!! You never understood... that we might want a different life than you. To believe differently, feel differently, and think differently than you.

[@ThePRCommander]

After the battle, the oh so bloody slaughter, in the depths of the Teutoburg forest, nobody believed the news; these primitive and barbaric tribes, having annihilated entire legions; nonsense; Laughable! But. In time, people understood it was true. They had really pulled this of; defeating, in fact, destroying, three entire Legions of Rome. And so, a new respect for the Germanic warrior was born. An admiration we still have to this day. Just think of World War Two. After the slaughter, Germanic warriors became high status mercenaries; this for a millennium to come. Including here in my country, The Kingdom Of Denmark. Germans ended up fighting in all the armies Europe could offer; marching, combating, bleeding, loosing and winning. Participating in most of the big wars. The German soldier, as we still perceive him today, was born in the Teutoburg forest.

[@jeremykegley1669]

Not true! The entire legion's weren't slaughtered just heavily defeated! Also the Roman's came back after and kicked Germanic ass but they never did conquer Germania again! The Roman Emperor of the Time said it best, "Let them fight and kill each other"! And that's exactly what the tribe's did for year's to come!

He chose to fight the oppressors of his people. He chose freedom for his people. And as a roman elite- soldier, awarded for his bravery in the pannonian war, he knew better than Vercingetorix and every other Upriser before, that this freedom would cost some horrific sacrifices. But although " germanicus " managed to surprise the small marsi- tribe during their thanksgiving- festivities ( when no warrior was sober ) and rape and massacre them all, he wasn´t able to defeat and subjugate Arminius and his followers. It´s nearly unbelievable: " germanicus " used the manpower and the resources of the biggest empire of his time, but he wasn´t able to defeat a union of some small tribes from northwestern germania! And concerning the choice that Arminius has made: he preferred to be a simple but free tribesman until an early death over being a wealthy roman mercenary/ slave. Someone like you can´t understand that, right?

"By its nature, kingdom demands peace. When people grow used to being at peace and at ease, such ways, like any habit, become part of their nature and character. The new generations grow up in comfort, in a life of tranquility and ease. The old savagery is transformed. The ways of the desert which made them rulers, their violence, rapacity, skill at finding their way in the desert and travelling across wastes, are lost. They now differ from city folk only in their manner and dress. Gradually their prowess is lost, their vigor is eroded, their power undermined.... As men adopt each new luxury and refinement, sinking deeper and deeper into comfort, softness, and peace, they grow more and more estranged from the life of the desert and the desert toughness. They forget the bravery which was their defense. Finally, they come to rely for their protection on some armed force other than their own" Ibn Khaldun
