#Germanhistorylesson Unfortunately, little is known about the early people in #Germany. The first written report (and nearly only one) was by a #Roman named #Tacitus. He believed that the Germanic tribes never intermarried with other peoples. Which was fondly replicated by the fascists.
They usually skipped over the reason he believed so: His main argument was that he couldn't believe anyone else would like to live there voluntarily...

I see that it is considered good manners to post an #introduction on arriving here. I'm a retired diplomat and erstwhile ambassador, living a quiet life. Trained in digital forensics, IS and AI, but that was years ago. Fan of #Juvenal #Tacitus #Pliny #boardgames programming #pic , messing about with #raspberrypi and learning new things.
