The Second Punic War - History of the Roman Empire - Part 4
By the second half of the 3rd century BC, relations between Rome and Carthage were subpar to put it lightly. The First Punic War had severed the friendship they once shared and the damage seemed permanent; even though the first clash between these former allies wasn’t initially about either of them. In fact, it began after a dispute between Messina and Syracuse that pulled Rome in on the side of Messina and Carthage on the side of Syracuse.
This eventually led to the all-out war that occurred between the two growing regional powers, and it ended with a decisive but hard-earned victory for Rome; and the island of Sicily becoming a province of the victors’, having up until that point belonged to Carthage.

  • Hannibal's tragedy was not having the necessary support from other kingdoms/empires, being fighting a stubborn and determined enemy, not having other strategists/great commanders like him on other fronts. And to make matters worse, Carthage entered a war of existence, but it was very disunited and did not give the necessary support to Hannibal in Italy. That Hano, who was called the great, did Rome a great service. And in the end, the one (Rome) who didn't give up and stood together won.

  • The story I have read claimed that Hannibal sent his brother Mago to Carthage for reinforcements. The senate wanted to help Hannibal but an aristocrat named Hanno II refused. He was a wealthy man whose wealth came from Spanish mines. He feared that if Hannibal took over Rome he would become the emperor of Mediterranean and Hanno will have no authority in these lands. He bribed senators to refuse reinforcements and sent reinforcements to Spain instead of Italy. As Rome knew about this they prepared an army and marched to Spain. On side note Hanno II was exactly the same man who in THE FIRST UNIC WAR forced Carthaginian navy on standby and helped Romans to prepare a navy. He was a traitor of Carthage who because of his greed and hypocrisy left the greatest ancient power in ruins.

  • Hannibal was stretched to thin. He lost too many soldiers during the skirmishes and battles in the alps before he got to Italy. Although he found some success in the Italian Peninsula, Hannibal's brother could not hold down the territory in Iberia which would be key in sending reinforcements or even taking back Sardinia and Corsica. Hannibal did not realize how resilient the Romans were. The only way I can see Hannibal winning is if he sent armies 3 times what he brought to Italy. They may have had a chance.

    • After the battle of Cannae Rome was hanging on by a thread. All they had to do was give Hannibal the resources and it would have been. Over In a couple battles. Possibly even one battle because if they had supported Hannibal fully then no doubt he would have laid siege to the city of Rome itself. Game over...

    • On the many comments about the Punic wars everyone missed one point.. Hannibal was not on his country City state of Carthage but in Italy for such a long time Another important thing.. Hannibal declared war not to another City state... during that period Rome was already the capital of a nation with many allied people from the southern part of Italy.

  • I'm sad that you did not mention the crucial contribution of the berbers to Scipio in winning his battle of Zama !! Hannibal knew he lost the fight before even beginning, just when he saw the berbers at the side of Scipio (the reason of their alliance is the revenge of the berbere leader MASSINISSA over carthage over a woman story). The berbers at that time were the best cavaliers in the world, and they knew how to counter the elephants charge, they did not fear them, on the contrary to the romans. PLEASE SPECIFY THAT

  • Some inaccuracies... 5:13 "As this new coalition marched on, Hannibal found success in multiple early skirmishes, like the battle of Ticinus, the battle of the Trebia, and the battle of lake Trasimene." The coalition didn't solidify before Ticinus. Hannibal needed that win to convince the tribes in Cisalpine Gaul to join him. Calling these battles "skirmishes" is quite an understatement. The first two were full-blown battles with a decisive Punic victory, wiping out several Roman legions. The third one is one of the most successful ambushes in history. A Roman consular army was lured into a trap and slaughtered. 7:07 "His brother was held up back in Spain, and no-one could assist from Carthage." The army raised in Hispania was soundly defeated. In Carthage, there was a lot of political maneuvering going on, and despite the tremendous achievements in Rome, Hannibal's faction was voted off eventually. The leaders of Carthage, largely due to jealousy of Hannibal's success and in fear of his becoming too powerful, torpedoed Hannibal's request for reinforcements, and decided on some half-hearted indirect support, like the unsuccessful attack in Sardinia. A lot of soldiers were involved in these missions. They could have just as easily been sent to reinforce Hannibal. So the "no-one could assist" part is quite wrong. 7:12 "Rome, however, had adopted a new policy ... they inacted the Fabian policy" The Fabian strategy had been applied much before Cannea already, albeit not as effectively as later on.
