>>22063148>>France has been invaded by romans for all their history.Friendly reminder that literally the first non-mythological event recorded in Roman history was them getting and their capital getting ass-raped by Gauls after a Roman outpost dared take side in a conflict between two Gaulish cities.
It took them several centuries to take those territories back, and even longer before Gaul's usual internal wars align enough to make a counter-invasion possible.
Why do you think Caesar was revered like a God for pulling that one successfully if Romans didn't had good reason to fear the Gauls? They were still butthurt centuries later after that "Vae Victis".
