Currently (2020) travelling is difficult so to make better plans for the future, here are some places you might want to visit to see, what the your favorite tribe has done or what remained ...
Note: In the German region Schwaben there are also many beautyful places, but they are not covered here since it is uncertain how the naming of the region is related to the historical group of people in Spain (those who are displayed in the game)

Rome
Rome has many beautyful and historical important places (and will be covered also when speaking of other tribes), of interest regarding the Suebians is the Column of Marc Aurel (on "Piazza Colonna"), which depicts also his the Germanic enemies (those guys you see in the beginning of the movie "Gladiator"), who later became known as Suebians. Here you can see how the ancestors of the Slaganz, Hildisvini etc. looked 300 years before the time shown in the game ...

Braga
In (or perhaps near) the city was the residence of the Suebian Kings, the city is also worth a visit for other reasons
Near the city is a region called "Terras de Bouro" (Land of the Buri(= "Farmers", contemporary German "Bauer"; same word as today "Boer" in southern africa) - a germanic tribe mentioned by Tacitus)
Also some villages near the city (in Spanish Galicia) still today are named "Suevos", so if want to see, how the descendant of your warband today look like, you might get an idea there.
