I like how HistoryMarche gives the most detailed narration of the Second Punic Wars. When we read about this 17-year long war, all we read about are the battles of Hannibal and Scipio while forgetting other theatres. This was in some aspects an Ancient World War. For future videos, I hope that HistoryMarche makes more videos on less publicized but equally important wars and battles. I noticed that many youtube channels, repeat historical events.

I had heard that Hannibal's brother had failed to reinforce Carthaginian Forces in Italy. Now I know how that happened. Great video. Can't wait for the next one. I also get the feeling that this series is close to ending.

Damn... it looked like Hasdrubal executed the tactics of the battle perfectly, and yet he still lost due to his weaker infantry with low morale... Seems kind of unfair. But then again, really shows how much morale really matters.

Encirclement is the most meta tactics beside flanking....the reason is 1.when an army gets encircled they unconciously thinks they had no escape so morale is already plunging down 2. They gets pushed in any direction...making the center proposition of the army get crushed and couldnt breath and possibly already lose valuable stamina 3.directly correlates to 2nd point...when and army gets cramped and stuck in a very tight formation due to an imploding pressure from any direction could result in the weapons they held turns againts them and hurt them accidently

I’m loving the fully fleshed out Hannibal series. It really shows that these wars were long lasting and had many integral parts as opposed to popular belief. Has the team at HistoryMarche ever considered a “History of the Universe” themed series with this narration? I would definitely give that full support.

Amazing work to cover all theaters of this large scale war! The most videos and books I have seen/read only covers the campaign in Italy. Never realized how skilled the Scipio brothers were and how crucial their part was for keeping Rome in the war.

I am so happy this is out! This series is so epic.

In all fairness, Hasdrubal's Iberian mercenaries were GREEN and not moulded to his will. IN CONTRAST, the Gallic-Iberian Centre Hannibal used in Cannae consisted of Gallic troops who had fought under Hannibal for the past few years since the Trebia, further augmented by his Iberian VETERANS who had followed him since LONG BEFORE his crossing of the Alps (and probably also long before Hannibal even besieged Saguntum). And yet... We saw Hannibal's Gallic-African Centre shattered by the Romans at the Trebia despite Hannibal's victory. Many of these Gauls would later hold the line at Cannae. We also see the same Romans' vanguard break through the Carthaginian decoy force at Trasimene. Dogged Roman determination is nothing to scoff at!

Strange development of events, pity for Hannibal. Cant wait for the next chappters. I knew just basics from school, this is beautifull and in detail presentation. Channel is awesome, thank you!
