Author Description

Excerpt from A History of Germany: From Its Invasion by Marius to the Year 1850; For the Use of Young Persons The limits of ancient Germany were probably not very different from those of the country which still bears that name. On the west it was bounded by Rhine; but a few tribes had from time to time crossed over to the left bank of the river, and founded colonies, which at a very early period fell into the hands of the Romans. On the south of the Alps separated it from Italy, and on the north it was bounded by the Baltic and Northern Seas.
