Legio I Germanica was a Roman legion that won acclaim early under Augustus (27 BCE - 14 CE) but was stripped of its title for cowardice. Stationed on the Lower Rhine, the legion mutinied in 14 CE and then faced disgrace when it turned traitor to Rome during the Batavian Revolt. It was disbanded by Vespasian in 70 CE. * * * _This is a companion discussion topic for the original definition at [https://www.worldhistory.org/Legio\_I\_Germanica/](https://www.worldhistory.org/Legio_I_Germanica/)._ * * * **Join the Conversation** - Is there a related topic you'd like to see covered? - Have you come across a different take on this topic? - What did you think about this definition?
