description | The Germanies were defended, after Varus’s disaster, by two armies which resembled the others in their composition and hierarchy, their numbers being pared down from eight to four legions. They had to organise their defensive systems, one for Upper Germany and the other for Lower Germany. They took sides in the turmoils of 21 and 68. More significantly, they played a part in all areas of the province’s history. On examination, recruiting shows a slow evolution, marked by a growing participation of the inhabitants of the provinces. The soldiers fostered prosperity through spending their pay and catering for themselves. They also contributed to the spreading of romanity. |
