Rome never subdued the Germans.
Nor the Brits and Scots, both Germanic peoples............

The Brits of that period spoke a Celtic language (ancestral to modern Welsh and Breton). The Scots were then in Ireland and spoke Gaelic. Neither spoke a Germanic language.
Some of the Germans (those west of the Rhine) were under Roman rule. Those between the Rhine and the Elbe were for a short time until Arminius' defeat of Varus in A.D. 9.

The Scots weren’t in Britain when the Romans were there. They were still in Ireland until over a century after the Romans left.
The Roman-era Britons and Scots, while related to each other, were not Germanic peoples.
The myth that the Romans never passed beyond the Rhine after the Varian disaster is beyond foolish.
