@athousandyoung saidThe Cimbri and the Teutons, two Germanic peoples, were all but wiped off the map by Marius.
The Romans never conquered any of the Germanic peoples.

Their strength is in infantry. Some tribes fight also with the chariot. The higher in rank is the charioteer; the dependants fight. They were once ruled by kings, but are now divided under chieftains into factions and parties. Our greatest advantage in coping with tribes so powerful is that they do not act in concert. Seldom is it that two or three states meet together to ward off a common danger. Thus, while they fight singly, all are conquered.

@athousandyoung saidRome’s expansion was halted to north by “the blond beast who sacked Rome” as Nietzsche somewhere remarks, and Armenius who cut three Roman legions to pieces near present day Osnabrook (I’ve seen the battlefield and accompanying museum). “Varus, give me back my legions!” Augustus is reputed to have cried upon hearing of the debacle.

Below is a link to a page describing the Roman limes:

And you are correct, the Roman Empire did not extend as far north as present/day Denmark.
