O JURAMENTO DE ANÍBAL | O General Que Invadiu A Itália E Chegou As Portas De Roma

Episode 12 - Rome believed it had buried Carthage forever. After the First Punic War, it seized its islands, humiliated its enemies, and imagined that the old Phoenician power would never again threaten the Mediterranean. But in the mountains of Iberia, a new war was being forged. Hamilcar Barca died leaving more than a dynasty: he left an oath. And his son, Hannibal, would transform this inherited hatred into the most impossible march of Antiquity. In this episode, we follow the death of Hamilcar, the rise of Hannibal, the siege of Saguntum, the declaration of the Second Punic War, and the terrifying crossing of the Alps—when men, horses, and elephants defied the ice to take the war to the heart of Italy. From the terror of Trebia to the ambush at Lake Trasimene, to the perfect trap at Cannae, Hannibal would bring Rome to its knees. But Rome was not yet dead. The question was no longer whether Hannibal could win. It was whether Rome could survive long enough to destroy him. #Rome #Carthage #Hannibal #PunicWars #SecondPunicWar #AncientHistory #RomanRepublic #JourneyThroughTime #Alps #Canae #History #history #Rome #history
