We covered Roman frontiers in Britain, Jordan, Egypt, and the Neverlands... We thought its time for the largest one; the Rhine frontier! It is often said that Augustus founded and built the Roman border with the Rhine, that he installed stone forts along it, and that it was an unshakable border meant to repel any invasion. This video aims to dispel the above myths and shed some light on Roman borders. It wasn't one emperor who built it, it took decades for the wooden forts to slowly become permanent stone ones, and the border was very dynamic network that shifted through the centuries! This video covers the grand strategy of the Rhine frontier and explains how Roman borders worked, as well as how Rome built its largest border. (Defense in depth - How Rome guarded its LARGEST border)

    • Thank you - this is exactly how I like my videos. Lightly contented adverts. Just like I prefer lightly fries'd salt from McDonalds. You're doing the lords work of working for the megacorps, I'm sure the few hundred bucks you get for wasting a million years of manhours on adverts is worth it. Especially when you're 1. selling merch, and 2. also doing sponsored adverts for bloody Opera.

    • The “few hundred bucks” go towards the creation of more FREE quality videos for everyone’s enjoyment. This all costs money; welcome to the real world! If a 1 minute ad of a great app like Opera is too inconvenient for you, then consider Netflix, where for only $20 a month you will watch amazing ad free documentaries like Cleopatra and Alexander. Good luck enjoying those!

    • A Rome without the (later) constant civil wars would be enough. Without these constant fightin legions vs legions, Rome would probably never have fallen - and then sooner or later it would have come to an industrial revolution in the Roman Empire. Well, I can't change the past - but at least in Stellaris I always create my Roman Empire and lead it to domination in the galaxy :) (And funnily enough I must have a lot of "brothers" who do the same - the devs implanted Roman numbers and names for leaders and ships several years ago!)

  • 3:56 Hadrian's love of walls continues into the modern day in all those RTS players that build three rows of walls around their entire base, cover every inch of said walls with towers, and keep a decent mobile response force handy in case of long-ranged attacks. It's possible to break those defenses, but it _will_ be painful for any attacker.

The way the roman culture merged and organically adapted the germanic and celtic influences seems kind of like a return to a panindoeuropean conciousness like parts of a whole that were torn apart and now put together again. I would appreciate more focus on these topics.Thank you for this interesting video.

  • 11:51 it seems the fortlets would employ an elevated structure for observation and communication with adjacent line-of-sight towers. The structure would not require the heavy construction of the independent watch and signal towers. Thus post and truss above an existing building would suffice. There is evidence that fortlets included towers in Ravenscar, Yorkshire, England where a fortlet was found to have a Latin inscription "Justinianus the First Centurion and Vindicianus the Magistrate built this tower and fortification from its foundations" Some speculate that fortlets would present a threat to any raiding party's ability to withdraw, particulary where the fort troops could march out and destroy improvised structures, boats or rafts necessary for exit past a body of water.

It might be from the events described on the video that originated the term, which is quite different from the english one.
