Description
English: The distribution of the primary Germanic dialect groups in Europe around AD 0-100:
  •  
    North Germanic
  •  
    North Sea Germanic (Ingvaeonic)
  •  
    Weser-Rhine Germanic, (Istvaeonic)
  •  
    Elbe Germanic (Irminonic)
  •  
    East Germanic
  • Note 1: Colored areas denote cultural-linguistic areas which would, in the following centuries, diversify and grow apart. However, in 1 - 100 CE, mutual intelligibility would have still been very great between all groupings.
  • Note 2: Black line denotes the Roman border at the time of the Flavian dynasty. Spots indicate areas made uninhabitable or extremely sparsely populated during the time portrayed due to the presence of heavy forestation, moors/swamps and/or mountain ranges.
  • Note 3: Lighter-colored areas denote areas of either mixed settlement, such as between East-Germanic and Balto-Slavic peoples, or possible settlement, such as the Istvaeones within the Roman Empire or the Ingvaenes in Northern Denmark.
