    📝 I'm working on the Battle of Cannae and I decided to compile the first 10 episodes, because when combined they have some 2 hours of video. So grouping them into two 1-hour videos (Parts 1 - 5) and (Parts 6 - 10) would make it a lot easier for you guys to watch, rather than go through every episode individually.
    That said, the episodes still have some stuff that the compilation doesn't, like the end cards, etc.
    The second compilation (Parts 6 - 10) should be released in a week or two!

      Caesar and Auralien too in terms of how they solidified changes to the military in their lifetimes and used those changes to maximum effect. And don't forget the Samnites! If Alexander had invaded Italy instead of Persia, he would have been up against two Central Italian military states that could weather his onslaught and are more likely to team up against the foreign Greeks. Hannibal did better than anyone other than Romans themselves, but Italy became a warzone when Rome and Samnium started fighting 120 yesrs before he arrived. Whoever came out on top was gonna dominate. Even by the Late Republic the Samnites fought the Senate and Sulla and they weren't pushovers. They just didnt want to fight en masse for a foreigner. To them that was worse than bowing to Rome.

      @@andreasyung78 Yes, Rome. By the time he left, the Roman army was poised to take over Europe. They learned from Hannibal the most advanced offence in the ancient world and how to defend against the offenses he introduced to them and avoid traps they were blind to before Hannibal arrived. Proof is, when Rome attacked Carthage, Scippio used Hannibal's tactics offensively and knew how to neutralize the elephant charge that was so effective when Hannibal first arrived on the Italian peninsula. Above all else, the Romans were adaptive so defeating them without destroying them was a mistake. Hannibal did not have the means to capture Rome the city, so they just kept learning lessons until he was depleted.

      Hannibal won almost every single confrontation at a tactical level. He lost at a strategic level. Long routes, made severely insecure by the Romans, having to either bribe or fight his way through a large swath of land made insecure by the Gauls, waging war all over Italy's outskirts but never close to Rome, all this wore him down. In fact, even if the Romans lost the battle of Trebia, depriving Hannibal of his war elephants could be seen as a strategic victory for Rome. Whereas the final Roman attack was short, straight to Carthage's heart, over the direct sea route.
      Hannibal should have read Sun Tzu: a capable general wins a war that is already won. Only a fool wins spectacular battles.

    This is why I love these types of long documentaries. It gives you a lot of details instead of majority of youtubers or history documentations on TV that just say "oh he crossed the alps fought like 3 major battles and eventually lost". While they missed the 15+ years and the dozens and dozens of other pretty large battles plus logistics that played part in the entire war. Only books could have done this type of detail but to be fair most authors lack the detail to stick to reading. It gives you a sense how long and complicated these wars were.

      Wrong !
      Carthage territory was mainly the whole of Tunisia (plus north west of Libya and north east of Algeria), that is the core of Carthage, and the city of Carthage in now Tunis was the capital.
      At its peak, it expanded to include the whole of North west Africa, most of Iberia, Sicilia (and of course Malta, Sardinia...).
      The Carthaginians were Punics who were a mix of the Phoenicians and the local people who were in nowadays Tunisia (specifically) who, unlike the local people of the other Phoenician settlements, adopted the Phoenician culture and developed it adding to it the local culture (just like the Etruscans in Italy who adopted the Greek culture a.k.a the Romans) especially after the fall of Tyre, and the total independence of Carthage in around 650 BC, which led to drastic changes which are mainly:
      - The fall of the old monarchy system and the rise of the republic of Carthage (the development of a constitution etc...).
      - The development of deities: Baal became Baal-hammon along with its partner Tanit (a local deity which replaced Ashtar and other Tyrian deities). They were both the main dieties.
      - The language has changed through time to be a mix of Phoenician language and the local language/dialect hence the Punic language and then the Neo-Punic and so on (search for the play Poenulus by Plautus)...
      - Unlike the Phoenicians, the Carthaginians were not only a great traders and merchants, but also a remarkable generals and warriors alongside their allies the Numidians and Libyans (well, most of the time !) who were under their rule and command, especially the Barcids for example (the family of Hamilcar and Hannibal).

    Its crazy how having support of the tribes or not was such a factor. It seems so minor compared to the Roman Carthaginian conflict itself.

Having their support in the conflict was actually much more critical then I would have thought.

    Cisalpine Gaul: Let me help you, friend.
    Hannibal: Ah sh*t, here we go again.

      I am convinced that the phrase 'can you imagine the gall of that ___' is just a bastardization of Gaul. just an unjustifiable audacity in the way they acted. Just as the relationship of 'vandalism' and the Vandals.

    Thank you for editing this together without repetitive intros and outros, I can't stand when channels make cheap 'compilation' videos that literally have the original intros and outros in each vid, adding an extra 10+ minutes to a 45+ minute video, like Screen Rant's Pitch Meeting compilations. I love Ryan George and his pitch meetings but that's so annoying and lazy.
