3:23 No clear etymology is given in Wikipedia for the name Germania, given by Romans to the area north of Gaul. I was browsing for Roman emperors and i was searching and reading about the emperor nicknamed Caligula, who was the third emperor of the empire. His face reminds me of known Hungarian actors of today. However his inherited name, from his father, which was more like a title, given by the Senate to emperors or generals after acquiring new territories, comes after Germania and it made me curious and clicked on it and once again i was intrigued by the vagueness of possible etymologies.

Then i remembered i once found on a very nice and detailed map of Ancient Europe i can't find right now, something that caught my eye. But found another one that might be better... A tribe named... Cherusci (right above where it says GERMANY).

Then i remembered i once wrote... well, posted, some pictures with Cherokees, again intrigued by the fact they were wearing feathers on their shoulders (like another guy known to us from even more ancient times) and possible link with Bible's Cherubs.

A missing (internet address) link, by that time i was putting only links to the pictures, i gave up that habit after too many links broke. I don't care about restoring this post since, well, i think i've done enough volunteering already, but look... And think.

We should quit seeing history as about isolated countries or Bible only as a religious book. They were links in the past among all continents especially during Northern Ice Age and people might have wondered more than we know from history classes.

As for Germany. Why the name Deutsche or Dutch by which Germans call themselves nowadays was not mentioned by the Romans?

There is a possible explanation. They weren't there at that time. Due to abundance of metals, especially gold the area of Dacia later occupied by the Romans was quite a worry free, advanced civilization. History now tells us that the barbarian Romans wiped or voided  of people the entire densely populated area of the occupied part of Dacia, taking some 500 000 prisoners which were then turned into slaves.

Could some of the remaining others have become refugees in western Europe, notably the Ruhr area which was also rich in metals, though not so much gold that was already depleted and thus not of so much interest to Romans anymore so they could go on with their skills to this day?

This could explain the Romanians' attachment for Germans, choosing a German dynasty as their kings and now a German (looking) president?
