>>18477809Happens all the time anon. The oppressed learns the devices of oppression through the oppressor.
>>18477825They weren't oppressed, though. The Romans didn't conquer much Germanic territory. They were just neighboring peoples in a near constant power struggle that the Romans tended to have the upper hand in until one day they didn't. Which is where the respect comes from.
