(I still agree with arcen tho this is utter heresy) Not true, the Gauls overwhelmed the Romans in the very early days of the kingdom, the gap in tech was not really that wide, Gauls were not savage barbarians you see in Asterix comix, they pioneered such technology as mail armor and pilum, and Ropmans were few in numbers back then and their tactics of Phalanx fighting was ill suited for asymetric warefare in broken terrain of Cisalpine Gaul. Once the Romans got their act together they consistently whooped Gauls and eventually subjugated them totally.
