My great grandmother, a Jewish woman, was in Kraków during the fall of Poland. She was just nineteen years old, studying at Jagiellon University. From what my grandfather told me, her son, she was a messenger for the resistance. She was captured by the Gestapo and sent to Kraków-Płaszów as a political prisoner. She worked as a kitchen staff woman, but when her Jewish identity was found out, she was moved to working in a stone quarry. I met her as a little boy before she passed, and I remember having by far the most callaced hands of any woman I've ever known.

The Roman’s look pretty good but the Germanic tribes look just as bad as the Vikings in the Vikings tv show. In reality many would be wearing armor similar to the Roman’s. They’d have their own distinct look as well but it definitely wasn’t this. Thusnelda probably wasn’t fighting in battle either.
(Italian) Romans still often find it difficult to accept Arminius's Germanic tribes decimated them though they were poorly equipped with weapons as compared to the Romans as in the comments. History is history.
Agincourt one of the most brilliant battles of all times the English where outnumber more than 2 to 1 plus that the had almost no Calvary , of course the command in the French army and their personal diferences helped into the masacre they led to their man , but hell Henry the 5 was a master tactic and a insanely brave man to manage wining this impossible battle
