==== Without an Heir ====
After the emperor, Heraclius, highly popular with the people, died without an heir, the nation went into a crisis. Heraclius caused the empire to greatly expand and also stabilised the empire, but now that he was dead, stability went to an all time low. Soon many of Heraclius's best generals soon began declaring themselves as emperor of their own respective regions. Other provinces, like Mecca (Romans), Morocco (Romans), and Libya (Romans) fell under native control. Soon, the empire collapsed, with the generals fighting over each other over who would become the rightful emperor of Rome.

==== Battle of the Saxons and the attempted push into Germanica ====
The first major offensive of the war took place in the Danish-Germanic Border. At this point, Denmark (Romans) was part of Britannia (Romans), however the majority of the people living there supported Germanica (Romans). As such, there was a limited supply of food, as the people of Denmark refused to supply the Britannian warriors without force. Still, The Britannian forces continued marching towards Central Germanica. Eventually, the Britannian forces met the Germanican forces near present day Saxony (Romans), beginning the Battle of the Saxons. At first the Britannians appeared to be winning, as they had a much larger and much more technologically advanced force. However, Germanica had its people on its side. Eventually, after a humiliating defeat on the nearby hill, the Britannians began retreating. The Germanicans then began to drive the Britannians out of Denmark. They successfully took Denmark in May, 633 AD
