Possible explanations include a thirst for power; success would see him lead his tribe.    <br><br>Arminius led Varus and his three legions into rough terrain where the Romans would be unable to deploy into battle formation. Heavy rain had made the paths difficult to traverse. The Germani conducted hit-and-run attacks on the column, launching short, fierce assaults and withdrawing before the Romans could respond. Making for a fortified military camp, the column was degraded through three days of relentless fighting until it was almost wiped out. Recognizing that the situation was hopeless, Varus and many of his officers took their own lives.

Without this defeat, the histories of the Roman Empire and present-day Germany would probably have unfolded very differently.  <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div
