Episode 4: Völkerwanderung Part 2! Link ⬇️. In this episode we complete the Germanic conquest of the Western Roman Empire and dive into the Medieval Kingdoms that grow out of its ashes, while getting into everything from Tolkien/LOTR, to Jägermeister, Warhammer 40K, R. Kelly, Maserati, Testosterone maxing, and Germanic/Norse paganism, as we explore how part of the Germanic world fused with Classical civilization and Christianity to create what you picture in your mind when you think of the word ‘medieval’, and how this event created a cultural fault line in the Germanic world that will trigger the Viking Age to come.

[The North Way Podcast @TheNorthWayPod]

When a Germanic tribe defeated another, the losers leadership structure (king, leading families, ruling coalition) generally retained power and just paid tribute: when the Huns absorbed a defeated tribe, said tribe would be absorbed wholesale into their military machine with very little political autonomy. The Tervingi / later the Vandals/Alans/Sueves were fleeing subjugation on that deeper level. See Priscus / Ammianus Marcellinus / Jordanes Getica.
