	Germanic paganism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Germanic paganism refers to the religion and mythology of the Germanic nations preceding Christianization.
		Germanic Paganism was a polytheistic religion with some underlying similarities to other European and West-Asian Pagan traditions.
		The majority of the evidence for Germanic paganism, both written and monumental, was likely intentionally destroyed when Christianity slowly gained dominant political power in Germania and later Scandinavia throughout the mediæval period.

	Germanic peoples - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Germanic peoples are groups of people identified by their use of the Germanic languages that are descended from Proto-Germanic (spoken during the final centuries BC, the Pre-Roman Iron Age of Northern Europe).
		The concept of "Germanic" as a distinct ethnic identity was hinted at by the early Greek geographer Strabo [1], who distinguished a barbarian group in northern Europe similar to, but not part of, the Celts.
		The early Germanic tribes spoke mutually intelligible dialects, and shared a common culture and mythology (see Germanic mythology), as is indicated by Beowulf and the Volsunga saga.

	Common Germanic language
		Germanic linguistics was the first to be researched deeply and thoroughly already since the beginning of the 19th century.
		Germanic tribes came to Europe, as we may suppose, from Asia through lands along the Volga, then via Eastern Europe, and settled in the north of Europe, colonizing also Scandinavia.
		Germanic words have cognates in Baltic, Slavic, Italic, Celtic, Venetic, Illyrian, Indic languages, and it is impossible to detect the closest language by these numerous cognates.

	Vattel: The Law of Nations: Book I
		When the nation is silent and obeys, the people are considered as approving the conduct of their superiors, or at least finding it supportable; and it is not the business of a small number of citizens to put the state in danger, under the pretense of reforming it.
		Every nation is then obliged by the law of nature to cultivate the land that has fallen to its share; and it has no right to enlarge its boundaries, or have recourse to the assistance of other nations, but in proportion as the land in its possession is incapable of furnishing it with necessaries.
		Those nations (such as the ancient Germans, and some modern Tartars) who inhabit fertile countries, but disdain to cultivate their lands and choose rather to live by plunder, are wanting to themselves, are injurious to all their neighbours, and deserve to be extirpated as savage and pernicious beasts.

	Germanic Studies
		Others realize that learning German not only acquaints them with one of history's great cultures, but also gives them a new perspective on their own society and culture and thus helps them to become more aware of the world around them.
		Other graduating German majors apply directly to graduate or professional schools in business, law, library science, medicine, public administration, and other fields; their undergraduate work has generally included a set of specific courses, and sometimes an additional minor or major, required for application to such schools.
		Prospective teachers are urged to combine German with a second major in another subject taught in high school, such as one of the sciences, mathematics, English, or another foreign language, in order to improve chances and conditions of employment.

	Lalor, Cyclopaedia of Political Science, V.1, Entry 89, ARYAN RACES.: Library of Economics and Liberty
		It was from them that the ruling nations of the earth received their religion; but these nations themselves belong to the Aryan stock, and are the authors of science and of the legal and practical institutions of the world.
		The Germanic heroes among the warriors of their race, who are killed in battle, enter Valhalla, and there prepare themselves for the world's battle (the last of all) when they, together with the shining gods of heaven, are engaged in fierce contest with the dark spirits of nature.
		The Romanic and Germanic elements in the population of France, together with Romanic and Germanic ideas, have gradually supplied what was wanting in the primitive character of the Celts; and both great rulers and great thinkers have, by action and thought, awakened and preserved among all classes a new and higher sense of nationality.

	Germanic Polytheism - Ancient Roman Empire Forums
		The Germanic tribes apparently were heir to a vast oral tradition of myths and legends as comprehensive as Greco-Roman mythology.
		This is perhaps one of the strongest legacies of Germanic polytheism, as Britain and its former colonies are influenced by Common Law.
		Germanic Paganism does have the greatest possiblity of becoming a prominate European Faith, there are so many Germanic Countries that would readily embrace it because their politics are so liberal and in general Christainity isn't as predominate as it is in Italy or Greece.

		National Socialism endorses the "leadership principle," or the idea that a Nation is best governed by those most capable of guiding his or her fellow citizens and providing for their social needs and wants.
		National Socialists promote the Scientific Enterprise, which is simply the discovery or understanding through free inquiry of the Laws and processes of the natural Order, and encourage use of scientific knowledge to better the collective human condition and the lives of individuals.
		National Socialism is dynamic and progressive, encouraging all types of cre- ative work which contribute to the health, happiness, or safety of the Race and Nation, and requires proper compensation in living wages, prestige, and social services for farmers, artisans, and laborers.

	Germanic Languages
		The East Germanic branch of the Germanic languages was spoken by the Germanic speaking people who, in the second through fourth centuries C. E., migrated first to the Danube and Black Sea areas from the Germanic homeland.
		The Germanic branch of Indo-European is a centum language, characterized by systematic change in initial stops, a stress accent on the first syllable of the root, by the productive use of ablaut in verbs, by the use of a dental suffix in verb morphology, and by the use of strong and weak adjective conjugations.
		West Norse is the western branch of the North Germanic languages used in Iceland, Ireland, Norway, the Hebrides, Orkney, Shetland, and the Faroe Islands.

	Leopold Von Ranke - Selections on Universal History (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		It is through this external relationship, which in turn depends on a nation's peculiar character, that the nation enters on the stage of world history, and universal history must therefore focus on it.
		Some nations on earth were armed with this power before others and these came to exert a preeminent influence on the rest.
		We should concern ourselves with the influence which these nations have had on one another, with the struggles they have waged with one another, with their development in peace and war.

		A nation inhabiting the Rhine valley and the forests of western Germany (near modern Hanover) during the 1st century BCE and 1st century CE.
		Italicus was a nephew of Herman raised in Rome and appointed by Emperor Claudius.
		They were in their time perhaps the best-known Germans among the Romans - Tacitus mentions that they were the only tribe to carry on extensive trade with the Empire, and that individual Hermanduri were the only Germans allowed in Roman cities without armed escorts.

		Celtic seems to have disappeared from Northern Gaul by the fifth century and was later re-introduced by refugees who fled to the Continent from the invasion of the British Isles by the Angles, Saxons and Jutes.
		In the period of the migrations, the languages of the invading nations introduced a stronger element of linguistic diversity into the territory of the late Roman Empire.
		It was so thoroughly established that the invading Germanic nations generally adopted it as their own language.

		And He goes on to tell how the SHEEP NATIONS are given the Kingdom prepared for them from the foundation of the world, while the GOAT NATIONS are cast into the fire prepared for the devil and his angels.
		A sheep nation can only be a nation made up of sheep, and a goat nation one consisting of goats.
		Don't apologize for being one of God's SHEEP, a citizen of a SHEEP NATION: be proud of it; be WORTHY OF IT; and walk, rejoicing in your destiny.

	Comparet Your Heritage
		This reconstructed nation, sometimes called "Jewish" was the "70 weeks" nation with the evil destiny "to finish the transgression," prophesied in Daniel 9:24.
		The complete and permanent destruction of the Jewish nation by the Romans under Titus, and their subsequent troubles as outcasts in every land, are not a failure of the prophecies and promises to Israel, but an accurate fulfillment of the prophecies about the Jews.
		The Scandinavian and Germanic nations arc of the same blood, have largely the same customs, and can be identified historically as the peoples who furnished most of the population of the British Isles and its colonies and the United States.

		This battle initiated the process, which took two centuries for its accomplishment, by which the western half of the empire was invaded, conquered, and divided by Goths, Franks, Vandals, and Lombards.
		In the meantime the Frankish nation had long been pressing into the northern sector of the ancient Roman provinces.
		The Franks thus became the first of the Germanic nations to espouse the orthodox Christianity of the empire, a fact which gained them favor not only in Constantinople but also among the people and clergy of the Roman population in Gaul.

	Peoples of the Dark Ages
		The Germanic peoples who brought low the Western Roman Empire often belonged to shifting, wandering confederacies, who were never as homogenous as their names suggested.
		Singular names such as Franks or Ostrogoths belied the fact that these peoples incorporated a disparate range of adventurers and opportunists, who were by no means even exclusively Germanic, let alone 'Frankish' or 'Gothic'.
		If the Germans dominated Western Europe, it was the Greek-speaking 'East Romans' who dominated the wealthy and sophisticated lands of the eastern Mediterranean and kept alight the flame of Classical civilisation.

	Karl Jaspers, The Spirit of Europe (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Europe is the country of liberty, that is to say of the formation - as a result of the rivalry between states - of forces that are particular and different from one another.
		Down the centuries this diversity has become the distinctive characteristic in the forming of Europe, for even after the constitution of great states and nations, the essence of that original characteristic remained intact.
		The fertile conflicts between Church and State, between nations and Empires, between Romanic and Germanic nations, between Catholicism and Protestantism, between theology and philosophy - between Russia and America today - these too are European.
