Answers
Germania is a Roman term for the geographical region in North Central Europe, Inhabited mainly by Germanic peoples. Germania, was the Roman term for the historical region in north-central Europe initially inhabited mainly by Germanic tribes.
The origin of the term "Germania" is uncertain, but was known by the time of Julius Caesar. In the 1st century BC, Caesar wrote about warlike Germanic tribesmen and their threat to Roman Gaul, and there were military clashes between the Romans and the indigenous tribes. In the late 1st century AD, Tacitus wrote Germania the most complete account of Germania that still survives.
Germania extended from the Danube and Main in the south to the Baltic Sea, and from the Rhine in the west to the Vistula. The Roman portions formed two provinces of the Empire, Germania Inferior to the north (present-day southern Netherlands, Belgium, and western Germany), and Germania Superior to the south (Switzerland, southwestern Germany, and eastern France).
During antiquity, Germania was initially inhabited not only by Germanic tribes, but also Celts, Balts, Scythians, Sarmatians, Alans and later on Early Slavs, Pannonian Avars, and Huns. The population mix changed over time by assimilation, and especially by migration during the Migration Period with many Germanic tribes migrating to the Roman Empire, and a large influx of Slavs.
