Try it with lead figures on the table. It's even more satisfying.

Very well done. Again this is the best reconstruction of this battle I've seen. Accurate from what I have learned also. The javelin tossing unit was among the most important as they were the most effective counter to the War Elephants. Most people don't understand anymore the importance of this battle's outcome. Had Hannibal won, the Romans would have been in deep trouble. Scipio had proven to be the only leader they could find who could handle the Carthagian war machine of that time. He goes down and they are back to besieged by Hannibal. This victory enables them to control all of the Western Mediterranean region, and this makes the world as we know it possible. France, Spain, Britain, Portugal, Holland, Belgium, Germany. none of those countries are possible without the Romans controlling and organizing those territories. When I think about it, NO LONDON, NO PARIS, NO VIENNA. No Charlemagne's Empire, no Spanish, no British Empire, so no USA, no Mexico, maybe the Aztecs or a successor state is still the strongest in Mexico, as with the Inca in Peru. Would the "New World" even been explored and developed to the extent it was by China or India. Would some powerful Islamic Caliphate even made the trip across the Atlantic by now? Columbus was sort of a crazy dude who took a terrible risk with the lives of his crew. If the Earth had remained Pangea, they would have perished before reaching the other side of the single landmass, supplies would have run out, they barely made it as it was. With no crazy, reckless adventurer, maybe there still wouldn't be a "discovery" beyond the very minor Viking event that made very little impact in the 529 years since 1492. It's actually a similar timespan between his time and the Viking event. No Western European culture period as we know it, there would have been Celts, the Goths and Huns were still going to do their thing, but Modern Western Civilization is merely a modified form of 400's Christian Western Roman civilization, and a surprisingly great amount of it is still preserved intact or almost completely intact in our day to day lives from the calendar and clocks system we use to measure our lifespans, to religion, to the letters we use in our written languages, to our art and architecture rooted firmly in the Roman tradition, even down to furniture making. The Romans had sedan chairs! Augustus apparently had as a "throne" a presumably very comfortable sedan chair!

Roman culture was basically Greek culture. Had Rome never existed, Greek culture would still have thrived. Other nations, of whom we have never heard because they were conquered by the Romans, would have taken up Greek culture, and eventually a different "renaissance" might have occurred. History is so complex that it is impossible to say "without this event" the world would have been completely different. It would have been different, but not necessarily unrecognisable.

@jonathancummings6400

2 жыл бұрын

@@DieFlabbergast No. The Romans were different, unique. The Romans absorbed the Greek technology, and their high arts, and philosophy, but other things were because of a shared Indo European origin. The Romans were capable of conquering and uniting the all the lands that surrounded the Mediterranean. The Greeks proved they were not. Alexander could, but he was going to die at age 32 in Babylon having conquered territory in the opposite direction, towards India. They couldn't outfight Carthagians the way the Roman could. The problem with most historians and even wanna bees like myself is we say "Romans", when it's really a series of close calls and some amazing leader jumps up and turns the tide. Even when it has slipped and was just the Eastern Empire, this still happened, Heraclius, Basil the Bulgar slayer, then, they stopped generating these gentlemen at last. Roman history is all about "great man history" that many people these days claim wasn't a thing, but is was. No Scipio Africanus, the Romans and Carthage eventually end up in inconclusive stalemate when Hannibal and his brother die. Of course, then the Romans wouldn't have had the strength to clobber Greece as they did right after winning the 2nd Punic War. Scipio's rise was therefore, the beginning of the end of both Carthage and Greece as independent realms. He was able to totally replace Carthagian Spain with a Roman Spain, then conquered North Africa outside of the immediate territory surrounding Carthage itself, a fatal wound inflicted on that huge city, then defeated Hannibal himself, the only man apparently capable of doing so. One of the only times in history when two of history's great military geniuses actually live at the same time and go head to head. Hannibal was surely still the tactical superior, but Scipio was the superior strategist. He created a battle where there was no room for tactical brilliance to change the outcome. He trapped Hannibal's army, and disallowed anything but a retreat or straight up head on battle. He handled the Elephants, and used the superior Roman infantry to hold the Carthagian Army in place, and uses the Numidian Cavalry to flank and destroy that army. Hannibal must have felt very frustrated witnessing the way the battle progressed, no room to do anything his clever mind could have done to change the outcome, just this inescapable box. I wonder what he thought about the sudden emergence of a Roman military leader capable of totally dismantling Carthagian Spain, and ending his brother Hasdrubal. Here, was his greatest strategic mistake in the entire war, not going to the aid of his brother. Scipio might not have prevailed with Hannibal himself present with his army or part of his army to build a whole new army. I think Hannibal might have thought the move just a diversionary tactic to draw him out of Italy, so the Roman could fortify the passes through the Alps so he couldn't return that way with an army. However, preserving Carthagian control of Spain was the more important than maintaining the inconclusive stalemate he had achieved in Italy. Which he learned when his brother was dead, Spain was in Roman control, and the Romans finally had a commander of a quality that could truly challenge him. I'm certain he would have looked forward to the first battle with Scipio, because this man ended his brother, and was the Roman's last, best hope, Hannibal crushes him, and he could retake Spain, and the Romans are worse off, with a destroyed morale to boot. Unfortunately for Hannibal, Scipio knew how to defeat him somehow, as he too, were a certified military genius. Thus history was put on the path that leads to our current world, which if the battle goes the other way, would have been utterly impossible. Why? Because the Carthagian Phoenician Civilization becomes the dominant Western Mediterranean culture, not Greek, not Roman. They eventually control Spain, Gaul, and Britain, the desire for wealth, resources, would drive them as it did the Romans, and they had good enough armies to own the Celts and beat back the Germans as the Romans did. Unless the Carthagians do it, no single great power rules the entire Mediterranean lands, in the East, the Seleucid Empire probably prevails in the end, with no powerful Roman Empire to defeat them, they probably absorb Asia Minor, Macedon, Greece, and finally Egypt, reuniting Alexander's Empire. This increase in wealth and manpower probably enables them to defeat the Parthians soundly, and absorb the Bactrian realm in the East. The Mauryan Dynasty might not fall with a friendly, very mighty Empire on it's Western border, shielding it from dangerous steppe warrior tribes like the Kushan, or Parthians. If the Seleucids and Carthagians decide to fight together to reduce the Romans, they would then be doomed. It's not impossible, Hannibal, fled to the Seleucid Empire. So in this scenario, they decide, they are tired of the troublesome Romans, and just sandwich them between two hugely powerful Empires. So, possibly by 100 B.C. equivalent, there is no independent Greece or Italy, no Roman Civilization. It was obliterated by the terrible power of a Carthagian Empire that controls the Western Mediterranean, and the huge Seleucid Empire, which controls the Eastern Mediterranean all the way to the border with the still extant Mauryan Empire. Well, maybe the Seleucid Empire overpowers even Carthage and creates a gigantic Empire that stretches from Southern Britain to India, and they are the ones who continue Western Civilization, but the present would be incredibly different. Unless they adopted the Roman alphabet, no modern alphabet used in the USA and in Western Europe in general, does Christianity emerge and become what it is today? No, the Seleucid Empire wasn't like the Roman Empire, so Christianity's history would have been different. It would be a very different religion right now, Islam wouldn't exist, it developed during the rivalry between the Sassanian Empire's rivalry vs the Eastern Roman Empire, in lands neither had a strong presence in. They then rose up and conquered the entire Sassanian Empire, and huge parts of the Eastern Empire, and never looked back. Here, though, the Sassanian Empire controls all of the territory involved, no Eastern Roman Empire, no Sassanian Empire, no war in the 620's A.D.. No way a small cavalry army of Saudi Arabian desert Barbarians can overcome the terrible power of such a Seleucid Empire. They could easily through 200,000 men at that force with ease, instead of the 40,000 the Sassanians were apparently able to muster. No chance of victory, and as that army was wiped out, the religion they championed goes with it. So the modern world is a very different place without this event happening.

What a sad moment for Carthage. They had been against the adventurism of Hannibal who, like Rommel, far exceeded his orders. Now, Carthage was down to a vast army of ill-trained and poorly motivated home troops. It was an indictment of Hannibal that it had come to pass. The general who he himself regarded higher, Pyrrhus, had always secured his home base before venturing against Rome. Now Scipio and the disgraced legion from Cannae could recruit Hannibal's light cavalry for his own and win the day...

I literally don't even understand the 2nd Punic War, how the heck did Rome lose 60-70k men at Cannae, 30k at Trebia, 15k at Trasimene and then somehow pull another 30k men out of their butt to invade Zama and win lol and THEN go to Greece and dumpster Macedon a few years later.

Nice vídeo!

I read through Polybius that it was the elephants, that retreated from the roman fusilade of spears and arrows, who crashed back into the Carthagenian line adding to its confusion and disarray. The video portrays all elephants killed, not so, some elephants survived which the Roman infantry utilized in future campaigns especially the later "Macedonian Wars."

The Roman's also used trumpets to spook the elephants as well.

Wikipedia... According to Appian, several years after the Second Punic War, Hannibal served as a political advisor in the Seleucid Kingdom and Scipio arrived there on a diplomatic mission from Rome. It is said that at one of their meetings in the gymnasium Scipio and Hannibal had a conversation on the subject of generalship, in the presence of a number of bystanders, and that Scipio asked Hannibal whom he considered the greatest general, to which the latter replied, "Alexander of Macedonia". To this Scipio assented since he also yielded the first place to Alexander. Then he asked Hannibal whom he placed next, and he replied, "Pyrrhus of Epirus", because he considered boldness the first qualification of a general; "for it would not be possible", he said, "to find two kings more enterprising than these". Scipio was rather nettled by this, but nevertheless he asked Hannibal to whom he would give the third place, expecting that at least the third would be assigned to him; but Hannibal replied, "to myself; for when I was a young man I conquered Hispania and crossed the Alps with an army, the first after Hercules." As Scipio saw that he was likely to prolong his self-laudation he said, laughing, "where would you place yourself, Hannibal, if you had not been defeated by me?" Hannibal, now perceiving his jealousy, replied, "in that case I should have put myself before Alexander". Thus Hannibal continued his self-laudation, but flattered Scipio in an indirect manner by suggesting that he had conquered one who was the superior of Alexander. At the end of this conversation Hannibal invited Scipio to be his guest, and Scipio replied that he would be so gladly if Hannibal were not living with Antiochus, who was held in suspicion by the Romans. Thus did they, in a manner worthy of great commanders, cast aside their enmity at the end of their wars.

No true. Hannibal poisoned himself.

VITO VITTUCCI What he meant was that Scipio and Hannibal cast aside their hostility to each other after the war. Which is true. Rome and Carthage hated each other even after the war but not the 2. They even held meetings together during their times as administrators after the war.

@@retardcorpsman It was a wiki paste about the intriguing conversation, not the whole story. Rome flattened Carthage and salted the earth. Hounded Hannibal until suicide. I think he said something like "These bastards won't let this old general have peace even when not at war"...or no/

rascalferret I was talking about Vito’s comment and how he said the your excerpt (and the last part of your comment) could be false. Im also assuming that he might be claiming that Scipio’s victory made Hannibal salty and kill himself out of anger by adding that last bit. While the following conversation might not have indeed happen as it was a claim of a roman historian (Roman historian claims are sometimes fictional.), Scipio and Hannibal did indeed take each other with high regard. For example, many of these historians talked about how Scipio and Hannibal met before the battle and talked about their victories too. As for the cause of Hannibal and Scipio’s death, coincidentally, the roman senate did in fact spite the 2 with resentment and even removed them from positions of high power. The 2 also insulted Rome as a whole on their death beds too (Hannibal insulting rome for not being patient enough to wait for him to die and Scipio labelling rome as ungrateful for removing his position because of fear of his increasing influence.)

@@retardcorpsman Ya, I replied to yours. senate was miffed at Scipio for giving support or rapport to Hannibal. The salted Carthage after the 3rd Punic may be fabrication, but the place and its people were rekt. Hannibal was like, exiled and active simultaneously. He got a gig with king what's-his-name in Turkey, but was never successful as before. Losing favor and never truly safe, unable to escape, he emptied the cup. Unraveling the stories of the time. Like really old timey tabloids. I glad somebody pours through it...Rome seemed to smite their great statesman and generals as often as those leading men seized power/ were elected, and they smote each other. Roman stateman were always generals first, some didn't stick...I think because the loyalty of legions could be swayed to their generals rather than the senate, everyone was on about it...shot from the hip history, is the teetotaler's drunk history. lol

The cavalry charges are awesome!

The Roman army on its day was a bad ass mother!

Hi, I'd like to start off by saying this is a really good cinematic and I enjoyed it a lot. However, if you don't mind me asking, how did you get the General without any bodyguards?

Good Rome 1 speech at the start XD!!!

Thumbs Up! .....mmm...but..... No account I have read shows the elephants fighting, killing and dying in the first line of Romans. They passed through prepared gaps in the Roman lines and were dealt with in the rear. Your graphics are always awesome. Research on many of the battles often vary from accounts, where the actual accounts where remaining faithful to corroborated/accepted accounts of the battle are equally if not more dramatic. This video showed one gap early in the battle, however the gaps were many, and coordination between the first and second line would have been a great show.
