im beginning to think hannibal had many spies in italy. how else could he convince himself to cross the alps and be so sure he would defeat army after army. its all fishy
After reading Santiago Posteguillo’s “Africanus” trilogy it is most trilling to see this videos. HistoryMarche, thank you!
I wish he was my history teacher, history would be so much fun.
awww you just had to put that sad music at the end? when romans are being annihilated. brutal
The suspense and detail in this video is unmatched! Although I thought I knew most about this battle, I still learned new things, such as that only the roman centre was completely enveloped instead of the whole army. Research done masterfully, well done. What a gem of a channel this is!
Ecstatic!!! Well done guys!
