Maybe Germania wouldn't have been so bad without Hitler's vaunted Romans marching in and kicking them in the dick and enslaving them every time some senator or Caesar's failson needed to prove himself.

I mean, stone technology people built some pretty elaborate stuff, like networks of fish traps in coastal Australia, outrigger canoes in Polynesia that brought people to places as distant from their origin as Madagascar and Hawaii. Or Stonehenge if it must be whitey doing it. Goddamn the OG nazis were fuckin' insecure.

Kinda stupid too because the Germanic tribes were Rome's go-to for mercenaries. They were extremely well respected warriors during Roman expansion.

Good point, I forgot about that. Roman history isn't my forte, thanks for bringing that up.
