Alemanni
Alemanni was a confederacy of tribes which appeared on the banks of the Rhine in the 3rd century, and for long gave no small trouble to Rome, but whose incursions were arrested, first by Maximinus, and finally by Clovis in 496, who made them subject to the Franks, hence the modern names Allemagne and Alemans in French for Germany and the Germans. English names Almany and Almains are derived from the French names respectively.Nearby pages
