In 105 BC, two Germanian tribes, the Teutones and the Cimbri, defeated a huge Roman army at Arausio – apparently, some 80,000 Roman and Italian soldiers died. In terms of losses, this battle is regarded as the worst defeat in the history of ancient Rome, surpassing the Battle of Cannae. While Arausio was a massive defeat and did result in some political upheval, it resulted in few notable long term events and the tribes we’re never able or willing to exploit the victory. In 104 BC, a new Consul will lead the recovery of Rome… Gaius Marius.

HOW did the gold disappear? Such a vast hoard couldn't have been moved except with many men.Unless it was lost at sea?
Please add Turkish voice-over to your videos. Your videos are great. Greetings from Türkiye.
Is there anywhere you post the maps you use for this era? I'd love to know more about Roman settlement of Hispania Citerior and Gallia Transalpina.
I don't think Arausio is necessarily as crushing as Cannae. Diplomatically, Hannibal turned that victory to gain allies within Italy and without, which protracted the Second Punic War for years. And in that war, the Romans were spread out across multiple fronts, Gallia Cisalpina, Hispania, Sardinia and Sicilia and more fronts besides as Macedonia would enter the war. But in the Cimbrian War, the Romans only had to focus their resources in one direction, especially as the Jugurthine War wound down. Nevermind that the Romans retained many colonies close to the main theaters of war that enabled them to launch off future campaigns against the rear of the Germanic Confederation, whereas after Cannae, it was completely uncertain where Hannibal would go, when and with what numbers. Certainly there were more causalities at Arausio than Cannae, but the Romans were in a better situation, under better conditions, more technological development, more roads and a larger population to yield replacement legions. All against an enemy that wasn't as innovative and familiar with the terrain as Hannibal.
Next Battle of Dewair Please
I have one question…didn't these massive armies have scouts out front and on the flanks? The number ambushes they seem to walk into is astronomical!
