Nordic / Germanic Race Question

For people who view Nordic / Germanic races as superior historically, do they discuss why all of the Germanic tribes were "outpaced" by the likes of the Greeks and Romans?

did you read Caesars campaigns? if not, read it.

They were unable to take advantage of the movement of ideas and goods from established civilisations across the Mediterranean. The Greeks and Romans borrowed a lot from their neighbours.

But the Germanics and the Nordics were never really conquered. The Romans were forced to stop their empire at Germany, the Greeks spoke about them fearfully.

Survival of the strongest and fittest. The ancients could never conquer them, the middle ages trembled in fear of them, and more modernly, it took the combined efforts of the largest empires the world has ever seen to defeat them, and then only a few decades later it took the combined effort of over 50 nations to defeat them again.

It takes a strong nation of strong people to not only survive for so long, but to dominate their enemies so easily throughout history.

Relevant Wiki page?

Nature is why the German race is so strong.

this. the greeks never traveled further north than the balkans for a reason and when Caesar did he only conquered parts of France by conspiring with tribe leaders/subterfuge. Germania was never conquered. Never will be

starting in a warmer place really helped

you don't go from tribal to technologically advanced overnight

Commentarii de Bello Gallico

They don't call Germany the "Sleeping Giant" for nothing.

the might of Northsmen is never truly beaten, we will rise once more, when we get back a hold of our government, and get rid of these filthy shitskins, bring honor and glory to our ancestors once again, we'll be back, we always come back

You people are retarded, the fucking Germans were never conquered because the Romans had nothing to gain from it. They made money from war back then, because they would take shit back to Rome and sell it. The Germans wore shitty clothes, lived in huts, foraged for food in a forest (no crops to steal), didn't have any good weapons, could not make any armour worth stealing.... They just left the Germans be most of the time because they had nothing to take but slaves, and even then they could find slaves anywhere. The manor victories Germans had against Rome was when they betrayed them (they were allies at this time) and they led the legions deep into the forest with smiles before ambushing them in cold blood. Muh strong Germans.....

They pissed off Julius and he had his men make a bridge to go get the Germans and teach them a lesson. It was generally understood that if the river into Germany was not frozen they didn't have to worry about Rome. Julius mopped the floor with Germany.

So many fan boys on here

Latins and Greeks lived in a warmer climate with better soils so they got agriculture before Germanics did. Agriculture is what opens the door to all other advancements. Latins and Greeks are not, however, inherently more intellectual than Germanics, and the opposite is perhaps true, as we can see today in the modern world when both Germanic and Latino/Greek societies are equally developed.

Thanks my man.

A leaf speaks the truth

you're the counter signaling idiot. the greatest spoil of war then was one thing: HUMAN LIVES. The greatest resource then and today was and is people. This is why the Roman empire spanned to western France(Gallic tribes) who were just as primitive as the Germanic tribes. The difference between the two? One was never subjugated.

You're welcome

>hardcore biological essentialists go full Jared Diamond when their pet race is mentioned

>we wuz snowniggers but at least we wuz stronk

Except when Stalin bent Germany over and raped most of the women.

Germany is a violent shit hole and along with the England should be wiped from the face of this earth.

Not an argument.

Stalin? no sir that would be the slavic people that were mercilessly slaughtered by the millions and the Americans for signing the lend lease act.

"At least 100,000 women are believed to have been raped inBerlin, based on surging abortion rates in the following months and contemporary hospital reports,[10]with an estimated 10,000 women dying in the aftermath.[14]Female deaths in connection with the rapes in Germany, overall, are estimated at 240,000.[1][15]Antony Beevordescribes it as the "greatest phenomenon of massrapein history", and has concluded that at least 1.4 million women were raped in East Prussia, Pomerania and Silesia alone.[16]According to Natalya Gesse, Russian soldiers raped German females from eight to eighty years old.”

You Nazi dick riders are such transgendered nigger faggots.

Remember, the weakest race in Europe is the Nordic race.

>"counter-signalling"

What a passive aggressive bitch boy way to say "disagreeing with me".

And it's not accurate to say the Gauls were as primitive as the Germanics, they had better metalworking. And OP's question was about the technological advancements of the Germanics, evading the question and pointing to the fact they weren't conquered by the Romans is an evasion. We weren't conquered by the Romans either, you know, it doesn't make us any better than the others who were, it just reflects on the fact that the Roman Empire didn't have the strength to colonise backwards peoples so far away from its heartland.
The one time ancient Germanics faced an enemy invading them directly (the Huns), they ran away (they could because they had no real cities) and let the Romans finish them off for them.

you're the counter signaling idiot. the greatest spoil of war then was one thing: HUMAN LIVES.

No m8
1.you could find those anywhere else
2.there were too many fucking slaves at several points in roman history
3.you had to transport the fuckers, is it more valuable to move around 150 pounds of valubles or 150 pounds of slave?

>France(Gallic tribes) who were just as primitive as the Germanic tribes. The difference between the two?
Fucking roads, commerce and proper farming, for starters.

Listen, just because your ancestors were forest niggers doesn't mean you gotta be one now.

Meant to quote

no you faggot im saying that he's arbitrarily coming on here and disagreeing with the entire thread just to let everyone know that he does. his entire tone(like yours) is one of "YOU DONT KNOW WHAT I KNOW I KNOW THE TRUTH BEHIND THE CURTAIN HURRR"

but to the point, the Gallic/Germanic tribes didnt have the technological advances of the Mediterraneans simply because they didnt have to. it was the competition from warring civilizations in the south that lead to their advances. and simply put these advances yielded nothing when pitted against the tribes of germania.

you quote... wikipedia? what...? where does transgenderism come into play? you're not white are you?

it wasnt neccassarily about slaves, most captured men could enlist and serve for their freedom. that was the real use of human lives. meat shields

>Fucking roads, commerce and proper farming, for starters.

And the Germanic tribes were never conquered by the Romans. In fact they fucking sacked Rome later

>most captured men could enlist and serve for their freedom

Rome never committed the utterly stupid mistake of enlisting slaves in the legions. Stop making things up.

>And the Germanic tribes were never conquered by the Romans. In fact they fucking sacked Rome later.

They weren't conquered because there was no central point to conquer. After Teutoburg, Germanicus fucking looted and burned the fuck out of germania and took Armenius's wife and daughter captive. Armenius cowered like a little bitch while in hiding.

> In fact they fucking sacked Rome later
Yes, when it was christian, decadent, degenerate, and its army didn't give a shit anymore.
Practically bragging about beating up an old geezer here.

Dark Ages were sad times of European history. Was it caused by the destruction of Rome?

>Rome never committed the utterly stupid mistake of enlisting slaves in the legions

What are you talking about? Conquered warriors had a chance to enlist

Romans typically used divide and conquer strategy on would be provinces that were a collection of tribes, as opposed to a unified kingdom.
At the end of the war they'd give benefits to the allied tribesmen.

I can't find anything on the fly, but i am positive slaves in the army were a no-no for common sense reasons.
If your statement is half-correct, it must'nt refer to captured warriors that were fighting against rome, but recently conquered warriors of friendly tribes.

>The Germanics and the Nordics were never really conquered.
Who is Napoleon?

Its called over extension fuck tard

>greeks feared them

Yet the greeks beat them. Wow thats fitting

As if christianity had anything to do with the sacking

>had mud huts while Egyptians had civilization
>had mud huts while Greeks had civilization
>had mud huts while Romans had civilization
>had no colonies while English and French controlled half of the world
>start WW1,get served
>start WW2,get served like nobody before got served
>still claim superiority
never change,Germanicucks

>do they discuss why all of the Germanic tribes were "outpaced" by the likes of the Greeks and Romans?

Yes, they basically say Greeks and Romans were Nordics.

But it is easily disproved by the frescoes from Pompeii (pic related) - 95% of all people had brown hair, and 100% brown eyes (afaik).

Nordic people are subhumans by all historic metrics. Some defend this saying things like "muh harsh climate", but when you bring up the same arguments for niggers they get angry.

Then again, I'm not a racist, and I treat all people equally, Blacks (niggers) and Nordics (snowniggers) alike.

you making excuses for someone elses failure? nice

Contributed to weaened stability and the cuckification of Rome's military might.

Religion was part of the glue that held the empire together. Rome not only let you worship your old gods, it accepted them and integrated them to the empire. It also had the whole cult of the emperor thing going on.

Let me appeal to your common sense, if you were a pagan legionnaire, would you be more or less likely to break formation and rout if you're fighting for some pompous cunt who not only disrespects your gods but openly denies them?
Even if you were christian, you wouldn't be terribly willing to prove yourself in battle before the christian god as you'd be before the eyes of mars.

The empire was too big and too diverse to fully converted, and even so, Christianity is hardly a sound foundation for a militaristic superpower.

Consider this,

Japan was by far the strongest force in Asia
Germanic/Nordic in Europe

It took the whole world to bring us down. On average each German soldier killed 10 Soviets before dying himself.
The Japanese had the same ratio against the Chinese. Then again, one Russian could kill 10 japs before dying himself.

Just putting it in perspective.

>have cucksheds while Muslims and Africans are conquering your lands
never change Germans

I'm not talking about battle prowess, just why there was a Roman empire before a Frankish one or whatever.

>machine gunner
>kills 10 lightly armed people
>therefore "worth 10 times more"

Germanic stupidity, ladies and gentlemen

No you know why they lived in huts for thousands of years.

>(they were allies at this time) and they led the legions deep into the forest with smiles before ambushing them in cold blood.

This. And the Germans even built a monument to this in the 19th century. So much for German "battle prowess" or "honour".

Germans are really disgusting subhumans.

>The one time ancient Germanics faced an enemy invading them directly (the Huns), they ran away (they could because they had no real cities) and let the Romans finish them off for them.

Idiot. The only reason the Romans defeated the Huns that battle was because of the Germanic auxiliaries who made up most of the Roman army at that point. The Romans were such decadent pussies at that point in their empire they just stood back as the Germanics did all the fighting, and most of the dying. They lost their king that day, Theodoric.

One of the greatest strengths and weaknesses of the Germans/Gauls was that their kings would usually fight in battles with their men.

Let's a leader inspire great courage and respect among their men, but also poses a huge risk to morale if they fall.
