Quote:Romans never again tried to conquer Magna Germania after that defeat. After Teutoburg Forest, Romans applied a purely defensive strategy, defending their territory, not attempting to conquer areas east of the Rhine. They also built border fortifications systems (Limes Germanicus, Limes Raeticus).
Immediate result of this defeat,certainly wasn't that romans resigned from other attempts to subdue inner Germania.And it is very likely that during Marcus Aurelius reign,they once again make an serious attempt to incorporate large territory in Magna Germania to the Empire.
