Batavian rebellion
The Batavian rebellion took place in the Roman province of Germania Inferior between 69 and 70 AD. The rebels led by Civilis managed to destroy four legions and inflicted humiliating defeats on the Roman army. After a few original successes, a massive Roman army led by Cerealis eventually defeated them. Following peace talks, the situation was normalized, but Batavia had to cope with humiliating conditions and a permanent legion within her lands.
