More Information
1:46 It is most likely that the Italian Boii joined other Celtic tribes that came from Bohemia in to Pannonia.
2:46 The Andizetes where a celtizised Illyrian tribe.
3:03 The Dacian lands at this point where divided in to many small autonomous tribal alliances.
5:43 Or a small fortress used only for strategical (war) purposes rather then living purposes.
6:09 It is undeniable that the Romans played a vital part in the development of today's Bratislava right across the Danube from their border but I didn't count this because it *technically never was part of the Empire.
6:39 Fun fact, when the Magyars arrived to Pannonia they already had their own wine making techniques established. They then combined these with the Roman ones in Pannonia creating the unique style in which the Hungarian wine is made today.
7:47 It is also argued that this is mainly due to the fact that the northern border head more dangerous tribes like the Marcomani and Quadi then the eastern border. However when you look at the frequent Iazyges raids in to Pannonia this theory doesn't seem to hold up.
Other arguments are also that Romans used a lot of auxiliary forts for protection along the border. Hence the two legions where enough. However these forts weren't more numerous in Eastern Pannonia than anywhere else, plus legions where the only "active armies" that could respond to active problems happening, with all this combined eastern Pannonia was still less guarded then other areas in the Roman Empire.
8:02 This was mainly because the 7th legion was still in Viminacium in the south (so when the 4th left there was still one legion to protect the area) but when the 2sc legion was gone there was no protection from the East so the 4th legion had to be transferred to Budapest.
Lastly yes, over all the Pannonian basin had a much larger border force than other areas of the Empire, specially by the later Roman period, but this is the basin considered as a whole. All these legions and forces weren't uniformly divided within the basin and that was the problem I pointed out in the video.
8:15 The Second Legion Adiutrix had both a Capricorn and a Pegasus as a symbol but lets be honest Capricorn doesn't look as cool as a Pegasus plus we thought the Pegasus played nicely in to the nomadic horse theme Pannonia head through out the late antiquity and early medieval period.
9:09 The Second legion participated in all these wars.
9:27 They became a client state due to several small wars they had with the Romans all which they lost, however I didn't have time to mention these or go in to detail about them.
10:05 The Iazyges broke away from Roman control during this time.
11:19 Roman Limes means border regions of the Roman Empire and can mean also a border wall/fortification but doesn't have to necessarily.
13:42 This was a mistake, I didn't want to show the Goths raiding south but the Huns.
13:47 This is was also when the "official Roman port" for trading with the Huns changed from the cities on the Danube to Naissus in Serbia.
