Everything Everywhere Daily - The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest

Today in Western Europe, there is a line that divides speakers of Germanic languages and speakers of Romance languages. While that line has shifted over two thousand years, its existence can be traced back to a battle that took place over 2000 years ago.

Learn more about the Battle of the Teutoburg Forest and how its impact can still be seen today, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
