Difference between Elbe and History of Germany

Elbe vs. History of Germany

The Elbe (Elbe; Low German: Elv) is one of the major rivers of Central Europe. The concept of Germany as a distinct region in central Europe can be traced to Roman commander Julius Caesar, who referred to the unconquered area east of the Rhine as Germania, thus distinguishing it from Gaul (France), which he had conquered.
