Detailed Solution

The above statement is true.
Germania is a Roman term for the geographical region in North Central Europe.
Germanic is a Roman language that mainly describes the geographical region of central and northern Europe where the Germanic people live. The origin of the term "Germania" is uncertain, but it was known by the time of Julius Caesar. Germania extended from the Donau and Main rivers in the south to the Baltic Sea and from the Rhine to the west to the Vistula. Part of Rome formed two imperial states: Germania Inferior in the north (now southern Netherlands, Belgium, West Germany) and Germania Superior in the south (Switzerland, southwestern Germany, eastern France). In ancient times, the Germanic were settled not only by the Germanic tribes but also by the Celts, Balts, Skitais, Sarmatians, Alans, and later the early Slavs, Avars, and Huns. Population composition changed over time due to assimilation, especially immigrant migration, with many Germanic tribes migrating to the Roman Empire and a large influx of Slavs.
