Man, that must have destroyed the manpower Carthage had available.

BC and AD not BCE

i think u should change the background music as it is boring and monotonous u should use something that keeps the spectator more engaged like a playlist of classical music

The carthaginians were too greedy and should’ve taken the deal. Gotta pay those expenses

This series is a pedagogical wonder. Plus, cute stuff motivates me a lot. I love the sweet characters and the creative text here and there. Thank you for your efforts.

right epirus and macedonia are "greek" XD

No me explico como Roma tenia tantas ganas de extorsionar a Cartago, cuando sus propias reservas humanas debian de estar al limite. Los bosques de Italia estarian talados a estas alturas para reconstruir una flota tras otra. Pienso en la Gran Flota aniquilada por una tempestad al sur de Sicilia con 300 naves y casi 100.000 hombres. Solo la destruccion de la segunda armada de Kublai Khan en Japon se puede comparar.

love this stuff, got nothin' but likes and comments to offer though

Wow! What a story Well rold, too.

One new subscriber two amazing job on the animations and audio three can I ask you something four I want pins of you cute little guys

Modern Historian: So what's your sources Livy: It came to me through a dream

Phoenicians called themselves Caananites.???. that is fascinating. I always was curious if the Canaanites ever really existed, since the only place I recall hearing of them was in the bible.. that is so interesting. Great work!!

Very cool channel hope you grow! ❤

History drinking game: - Drink every time Latins, Greeks and/or North Africans wrestle control over some Mediterranean island. 1 shot for the Balearics, Corsica or Sardinia, 2 for Crete or Cyprus, 3 for Sicily - Chug a beer every time Latins and North Africans wrestle control over Hispania

@7:45 you’d think that Rome would learn at this moment the advantages of a well-manned cavalry. I mean sure, they conquered the known world for the most part, but it took them hundreds of years to really learn how to use cavalry.

17:31 after all that there's no way that's how he died. That's unbelievable. If you were a fictional history writer you literally couldn't put that to paper without being laughed at by the whole community. Just goes to show history is truly wacky sometimes. 😅

Can anyone say how many were in the army of Cornelius?

why is this channel so underrated

I've heard a theory that Polybius is biased in favor of Rom because he was trying to convince his fellow Greeks not to fight the Roman juggernaut. He didn't believe that they could beat Rome that they'd only have men die uselessly. Thus, he wrote his histories to try and show Rome as an unconquerable foe. Beat her up, kick her, but she'll come back swinging harder and stronger than before.

Just found this gem of a channel. Great work 👏

Would be awesome to have a series covering the diadochi and hellenistic era! obviously we will get pieces of that coming up but having a different series would be nice, love the content!

The trade animation was so cool

This felt way longer than it was. Great job

Now we know why internet virgins love Rome

Its over for trucels 😂

Gotta start from the beginning, also can't miss anything by only watching the compilation

The second time this channel got the attention it deserves

New classic channel just dropped

Man, those flash game type visuals are so nice and unique

YES!

Only playing Rome II Total war did i actually recently realize the sheer effect, at least psychologically, if not physically, that just a coiple dozen elephants can have on thousands. It is truly astonshimg that an army that is hard to truly imagine how big it is would be so terrified by massive animals that most people will probably never see.

Every time I watch your videos, I'm tempted to go play Imperator Rome. Anyway, another great video! I also like how everyone most of the time has a pretty normal look, but the horses are always angry, lol.

Looks Florida storm weather map.😮

W video 🎉

very informative 👍🏻 thank you for your good work and I am looking forward for any new videos

I can't believe this only has 10k views, this is insanely good and I really mean it. New sub!!

delenda est carthago!

Good video, glad I found your channel

They all had blue eyes. Not half arab eyes half china half immigrant..

actually, the punic armies used the greek like common language

❤❤

historia civilis stands in awe without being on arms

There is a reason Carthage was so obsessed with Sardina and why retaking it was seen as a bigger goal than humbling Rome. One reason they never sent Hannibal any backup in the second Punic war was that they didn't agree with his war goals. Sure making an alliance of anti-Roman southern Italiens and Greeks might be nice. But they just wanted Sardinia back. In their minds, Hannibal getting victories was just giving them a bargaining chip to retake Sardinia. And to be honest, that wasn't a bad idea. Trying to resupply Hannibal with no control over Sicily or Sardinia would be difficult. But if they retook Sardinia, then giving Hannibal a bigger army isn't needed, they could just use his presence in Italy to get Rome to say "OK, you can have your island back and here's some money now go away." Plus a Carthaginian presence in Sardinia could threaten Roman grain supply, even if they wouldn't actually risk their fleet in a battle against the Romans. The problem was that at the Battle of Decimomannu, Hasdrubal the Bald got his butt kicked. Now that the Carthaginians didn't have what they really wanted, they would need to take land from the Romans to trade for it, but now resupplying Hannibal was dangerous. Also the Carthaginians thought Rome cheated them out of the islands because they already signed peace after the first Punic war, but Rome basically stole them in the mercenary war.

I am so glad I found this channel.

Great video. I had always wondered why the Carthaginians would just not pay their mercenaries, as this fact was mentioned but not explored in other videos on the Punic wars I've seen. This video pretty much explains it. Gotta say I can't blame the mercenaries for trying to extort the Carthaginians after not being paid for so long, but they really should have relented when the Carthaginians refused.

I loce the way how you picture these characters. They look Chibis and i want to hold them in my hand

Does Polybius cover events like the Macedonian wars, and the wars in Illyria, or did he just write about the Punic wars?

That duolingo easter egg

Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Thank you, its a fresh breath to see creators try to explore new topics instead of doing the 15th video on yt about the same historical event.
