Fans of series such as “The Last Kingdom” * and “Vikings” can look forward to a new production that could suit their taste: On October 23, 2020, the
first season of “Barbaren” was released

It remains to be seen whether the full six episodes will be as well received.

Or has
Netflix
already commissioned a sequel?
We summarize all details about the
2nd season of "Barbarians"

“Barbarians” on Netflix: That's what the history series from Germany is about
The legendary
battle in the Teutoburg Forest is
said to have taken place
in 9 AD
.
During this dispute, the Germans fought against the Romans - and the latter suffered a devastating defeat.
The
Netflix series “Barbarians”
takes this fight
as a model: The Germanic tribes
Thusnelda (Jeanne Goursaud)
and
Folkwin (David Schütter) think about
what they can do against their Roman oppressors.
They come to the conclusion that the individual Germanic tribes can only take action against the troops together - however, the groups are enemies with one another.
To solve this conflict, they get help from the Roman officer
Arminius (Laurence Rupp)
.
Battle in the Teutoburg Forest - Everything you should know about it
So far, not all facts about the battle in the Teutoburg Forest have been clarified.
However, the ancient historian Reinhard Wolters has dealt scientifically more closely with the topic and presents his findings in the book "The Battle of the Teutoburg Forest: Arminius, Varus and Roman Germania" (commercial link).

"Barbarians" on Netflix: Will there be a second season on Netflix?
Netflix
usually takes a few weeks before decisions for or against series sequels are made public.
This also applies in the case of
“barbarians”
: the streaming service
has not yet confirmed a second season
.
The fans will probably have to wait a few more weeks.
Incidentally,
in the last few days,
Netflix
has
canceled several new series after just one season.
That doesn't give much hope at first, but if the reviews of
“Barbarians” are
good and the audience numbers are high, the chances that a sequel will be shot increase.
