This history documentary is a continuation of our Avenging Varus series.

The Roman Army of Germanicus had just defeated Arminius in the colossal battle of Idistaviso in 16 AD. Tens of thousands lay dead and by any stretch of the imagination, that was the end of the war. However the arrogance of the Roman legions in erecting a massive trophy deep within Germanic lands served as a lightning rod for renewed opposition forces. These now made ready for one last stand at the Battle of the Angrivarian Wall!
