What’s he gonna do when Rome hits the Rhine?
He’s gonna get it done
Ambush Rome with tribes combined
Run, Romans, run!
Gaius Julius
Known as Arminius, Armin, or Herman
He was a chieftan of the Cherusci
Born in 18 or 17 b.c.
He was German
But Rome was ruling, so cruelly ruling
Arminius played it like a Roman man
Then he would infiltrate the Roman army
Roman Varus
Thought he could take them. He was mistaken
In the battle of Teutoburg Forest
Arminius crushed three legions like a tyrannosaurus
Ever after
Known as disaster, Varian Disaster
Rome could not retake the territory
Germanic legends preserve the story
Got the tribes together
Working all together
Something that would never happen ever
Slings and lances break their formation
Their ruination
Thought they were there to stop an insurrection
Fooled by Arminus’ misdirection
Stepping through the forest of the Teutoburg
Set up the trap and away you go
Now they’re walking along - on a narrow road
Ambush them quick, so they never know
Hermann the German, the German, the German
Ambush them quick, so they never know
Hermann the German, the German, the German
Teutoburg, Teutoburg
Teutoburg, Teutoburg
Germans feared him
Conquering leader, powerful leader
Poisoned him in a.d. 21
A statue made in Minnesota
And one in Germany as well
And a football club
