At some point he was a bodyguard for Rome, but the two became enemies. He delivered the fatal blow to Rome, and died himself sometime after.

In a strip exclusive to the published version of the manga, it is suggested that Germania and Rome were allied as far back as the BC days of Rome, and that they presumably fell out in the AD era.

Trivia

• Though the offspring of Germania, most notably HRE, are referred to as his grandsons in his official profile, the Axis Powers Hetalia trading card game erroneously refers to HRE as his son (while giving no relation for "Prussia"). It is to be noted though, that in the description of the independently-produced Axis Powers Hetalia: The CD drama CD, he was listed as being Germany's father. It is likely that his relation to HRE was changed in order to make them further parallels to Rome and Chibitalia. It has also been theorized that some of Germania's offspring bore the other Germanic nations, making him a father to some and grandfather to others, or that he raised his children as sons while Rome raised his own offspring as grandsons (due to having aged considerably by their birth).
