Ιστορία

Οι Γερμανοί (Γερμανικά: Deutsche) είναι μια Γερμανική εθνοτική ομάδα, με κοιτίδα την Κεντρική Ευρώπη, που μοιράζεται μια κοινή γερμανική καταγωγή, πολιτισμό και ιστορία, ενώ έχει ως μητρική γλώσσα τη γερμανική. Στη σύγχρονη χρήση, ο όρος αναφέρεται επίσης στους πολίτες της Ομοσπονδιακής Δημοκρατίας της Γερμανίας, ανεξάρτητα από την καταγωγή, τη μητρική γλώσσα, την εθνική ταυτότητα και τον πολιτισμό.

Ο αγγλικός όρος Germans (Γερμανοί) έχει αναφερθεί ιστορικά στο γερμανόφωνο πληθυσμό της Αγίας Ρωμαϊκής Αυτοκρατορίας από τα τέλη του Μεσαίωνα.

Πριν από την κατάρρευση του Κομμουνισμού και την επανένωση της Γερμανίας, οι Γερμανοί αποτελούσαν το μεγαλύτερο διχασμένο έθνος στην Ευρώπη, με μεγάλη διαφορά, μια θέση που σήμερα κατέχει το έθνος των Ρώσων. Από την έκρηξη της Προτεσταντικής Μεταρρύθμισης εντός της Αγίας Ρωμαϊκής Αυτοκρατορίας, η Γερμανική κοινωνία έχει χαρακτηρισθεί από ένα καθολικό-προτεσταντικό χάσμα.

This List of Germanic Tribes includes names of populations speaking Germanic languages or otherwise considered Germanic in sources from the late 1st millennium BC to the early 2nd millennium AD. The c. 300 tribes do not necessarily represent contemporaneous, distinct or Germanic-speaking populations or have common ancestral populations. Some closely fit the concept of a tribe. Others are confederations or even unions of tribes. Some may not have spoken Germanic at all, but were bundled by the sources with the Germanic speakers. Some were undoubtedly of mixed culture. They may have assimilated to Germanic or to other cultures from Germanic.

Aeragnaricii
Ahelmil
Alemanni	Cassius Dio		In 213 CE, the Alemanni dwelt in the basin of the Main, to the south of the Chatti. They captured the Agri Decumates in 260 CE, and later expanded into present-day Alsace and northern Switzerland.
Ambrones (possibly Celtic)
Ampsivarii	Tacitus, Annales (13.54,56)	Ampsivari	Around the middle of the river Ems, which flows into the North Sea, at the Dutch-German border. Most likely they lived between the Bructeri minores (located at the delta of the Yssel) and the Bructeri maiores that were living south of them at the end of the Ems.
Angles	Tacitus, Germania	Anglii, Angli, English; part of the Suebi	Angeln, an area located on the Baltic shore of what is now Schleswig-Holstein, the most northern state of Germany; settled in Britain after Roman withdrawal.
Angrivarii	Ptolemy (2.10); Tacitus, Germania (33) and Annales	Angriouarroi, Angrarii, Angarii, Aggeri, Aggerimenses, Angerienses, Angri, Angeri	Engern, a region west of the Weser river not far from Teutoburg Forest, and also (probably by extension) in Angeron of Münster; Angria, Angaria, Angeriensis, Aggerimensis, or Engaria
Arochi
Atuatuci	Julius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico	Aduatuci; descended from the Cimbri and Teutones; possibly contributed to the late Roman-era tribal grouping known as the Tungri	Originated in the area of Denmark; allowed to settle amongst the Germanic tribes living in east Belgium.

Baemi	Ptolemy, Geography	Baimoi	North side of the Danube, near the Luna forest, and the Quadi, and with the Gambreta forest of the Marcomanni to their northwest. This would place them in or around modern Slovakia, Moravia, and Lower Austria.
Baetasi	Pliny the Elder, Naturalis Historia; Tacitus	Betasii	Germania Inferior (later Germania Secunda), west of the Rhine. Exact location is still unknown, although two proposals are: first, that it might be the source of the name of the Belgian village of Geetbets; and second, that it might be further east, nearer to the Sunuci with whom they interacted in the Batavian revolt, and to the Cugerni who lived at Xanten. The area of Gennep, Goch, and Geldern has been proposed for example.
Banochaemae	Claudius Ptolemy, Geography	Baenochaemae, Bainochaimai, Bonochamae; name derived from "Boii"	Near the Elbe river, east of the Melibokus mountains (probably not the modern Melibokus, but rather the Harz mountains, the Thüringerwald, or both. This is in turn north of the Askiburgium mountains (probably the modern Sudetes) and the Lugi Buri, which are in turn north of the source of the Vistula river. This position may be north of both modern Bohemia and modern Bavaria.	Equivalent to the modern term "Bohemian"
Bastarnae
Batavi	Julius Caesar, Commentarii de Bello Gallico		Around the Rhine delta, in the area that the Romans called Batavia.
Batini	Claudius Ptolemy	Bateinoi	"Above" (normally north in Ptolemy) the Banochaemae tribe, who were settled near the upper Elbe, and "below" (presumably south of) the Askibourgion mountain. Near the point where modern Germany, Poland, and the Czech Republic meet (modern Bautzen in Saxony).
Bavarii		Baiuvarii	Bohemian Forest
Bergio
Brisgavi	Ammianus Marcellinus	Brisigavi	Black Forest in south Germany
Brondings			Probably the Swedish island of Brännö, west of Västergötland in the Kattegatt.
Bructeri	Tacitus; Strabo		Northwestern Germany; present-day North Rhine-Westphalia. Their territory included both sides of the upper Ems (Latin Amisia) and Lippe (Latin Luppia) rivers. At its greatest extent, their territory apparently stretched between the vicinities of the Rhine in the west and the Teutoburg Forest and Weser river in the east. In late Roman times, they moved south to settle upon the east bank of the Rhine facing Cologne, an area later known as the kingdom of the Ripuarian Franks.
Burgundiones	Pliny (IV.28)	Burgundians	May have emigrated from mainland Scandinavia to the Baltic island of Bornholm, and from there to the Vistula basin, in the middle of modern Poland. A part of the Burgundian tribes migrated further westward, where they may have participated in the 406 Crossing of the Rhine, after which they settled in the Rhine Valley and established the Kingdom of the Burgundians. Another group of Burgundians stayed in their previous homeland in the Oder-Vistula basin and formed a contingent in Attila's Hunnic army by 451.
Buri	Tacitus, Germania; Ptolemy	Lougoi Bouroi (Lugi Buri)	Northern Carpathians; southern Poland between the Elbe, the modern Sudetes, and the upper Vistula. A contingent of the Buri accompanied the Suebi in their invasion of the Iberian Peninsula and established themselves in Gallaecia (modern northern Portugal and Galicia) in the 5th century. They settled in the region between the rivers Cávado and Homem, in the area known as Terras de Bouro (Lands of the Buri).

Mythical founders

Πρότυπο:See

Many of the authors relating ethnic names of Germanic peoples speculated concerning their origin, from the earliest writers to approximately the Renaissance. One cross-cultural approach over this more than a millennium of historical speculation was to assign an eponymous ancestor of the same name as, or reconstructed from, the name of the people. For example, Hellen was the founder of the Hellenes.

Although some Enlightenment historians continued to repeat these ancient stories as though fact, today they are recognized as manifestly mythological. There was, for example, no Franko, or Francio, ancestor of the Franks. The convergence of data from history, linguistics and archaeology have made this conclusion inevitable. A list of the mythical founders of Germanic peoples follows.

• Angul — Angles (the Kings of Mercia, according to the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, other Anglo-Saxon dynasties are derived from other descendants of Woden)
• Ask — Istvaeones
• Aurvandil — Vandals
• Burgundus — Burgundians (Historia Brittonum)
• Dan — Danes (Chronicon Lethrense)
• Francio — Franks (Liber Historiae Francorum)
• Gothus — Goths/Geats/Gutes
• Ingve — Ingvaeones, Ynglings
• Irmin — Irminones
• Mannus — Manni, or "men", a name fragment as in the later Alemanni (Germania)
• Nór — Norwegians (Chronicon Lethrense)
• Seaxnēat — Saxons
