In one blazing day on the plains of Cannae, Hannibal Barca turned Rome’s greatest army into a cage of death. With fewer men and flawless precision, he encircled 80,000 Romans and erased them from the earth—an execution so complete that it remains the deadliest day in Roman history.
This episode plunges into the heart of the Second Punic War, when Hannibal, sworn to his father’s oath of vengeance, led a multi-national army over the Alps to strike at the heart of the Republic. You’ll see how Rome, furious after Trasimene and Trebia, gathered its largest force ever—commanded by rival consuls Paullus and Varro—to crush the invader once and for all. On the sun-scorched field by the Aufidus River, we trace the perfect geometry of Hannibal’s trap: the bowing Gauls and Iberians, the African infantry folding inward, and the cavalry sweeping behind to seal the circle. Cannae became more than a defeat—it was a lesson in power, pride, and the art of annihilation.
Witness the battle that redefined strategy, humbled an empire, and created the blueprint for every encirclement in history.
