The Suebi or Suevi (from Proto-Germanic *swēbaz based on the Proto-Germanic root *swē- meaning "one's own" people, from an Indo-European root *swe-, the third person reflexive pronoun) were a group of Germanic peoples who were first mentioned by Julius Caesar in connection with Ariovistus' campaign, c. 58 BC;
Some Suebi remained a periodic threat against the Romans on the Rhine, until, toward the end of the empire, the Alamanni, including elements of Suebi, brushed aside Roman defenses and occupied Alsace, and from there Bavaria and Switzerland. A pocket remained in Swabia (an area in southwest Germany whose modern name derives from the ancient name), whereas migrants to Gallaecia (modern Galicia, in Spain, and Northern Portugal) established a kingdom there which lasted for 170 years until its integration into the Visigothic Kingdom.
In the classical sources, the ethnonym Suebi is used with two different meanings: the specific tribe of Caesar's campaign, "dwelling on the Main", and "broadly, to cover a large number of tribes in central Germany." The broad view is expressed in Tacitus's Germania, a basic written source for the Suebic peoples that states:

It's been a lifetime since i told you i care
It took a second, though it felt like a day
I want you closer, closer than you are now
Conversations, they lead us nowhere
If somehow, you feel to complain
I'm here just watching over you
It takes more than assumptions
To make me understand your point
It's been a lifetime since the day you were there
Blinked a moment, it all burnt away
Just say something, anything at all
I'm used to i won't take the fall
If somehow you fail
If somehow you just try to make it through the day
Then stay close to me maybe i'll try to take you through
Take you through on another day
Another day...
