The Romans feared the Germans primarily due to their reputation as fierce warriors and their ability to unite various tribes against external threats. The Germanic tribes were known for their mobility and guerrilla tactics, which posed a significant challenge to the highly structured Roman military. Additionally, conflicts, such as the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest in 9 AD, where Germanic forces decisively defeated Roman legions, heightened these fears and demonstrated the vulnerabilities of Roman expansion. This fear was compounded by the potential for Germanic tribes to disrupt trade routes and threaten the stability of the Roman Empire's borders.
