Punic Wars: Rome and Carthage
The First Punic War began in 264 BC when settlements on Sicily began to appeal to the two powers between which they lay -- Rome and Carthage -- to solve internal conflicts. The war saw land battles in Sicily early on, but the theatre shifted to naval battles around Sicily and Africa. Before the First Punic War there was no Roman navy to speak of. The new war in Sicily against Carthage, a great naval power, forced Rome to quickly build a fleet and train sailors. The first few naval battles were catastrophic disasters for Rome. However, after training more sailors and inventing a grappling engine, a Roman naval force was able to defeat a Carthaginian fleet, and further naval victories followed. The Carthaginians then hired Xanthippus of Carthage, a Spartan mercenary general, to reorganise and lead their army. He managed to cut off the Roman army from its base by re-establishing Carthaginian naval supremacy. With their newfound naval abilities, the Romans then beat the Carthaginians in naval battle again at the Battle of the Aegates Islands and leaving Carthage without a fleet or sufficient coin to raise one. For a maritime power the loss of their access to the Mediterranean stung financially and psychologically, and the Carthaginians sued for peace. Continuing distrust led to the renewal of hostilities in the Second Punic War when Hannibal Barca attacked a Spanish town, which had diplomatic ties to Rome. Hannibal then crossed the Italian Alps to invade Italy. Hannibal's ...

Ancient Rome XVI - The Final Macedonian and Punic Wars
This is the sixteenth ofmany chapters in History with a Twist of Lime's look on "The Historical History of Ancient Rome." This chapter deals with the final conflicts Rome was engaged in with their two most-hated foes during the Republican era: the Macedonians in Greece, and the Carthaginians in North Africa. We began with the Third Macedonian War (171-168 BC), where the son of Philip V, King Perseus of Macedon, incites a revolt with the Greek city-states against Rome, which would only result in further Roman occupation of Greece. This causes the Fourth Macedonian War (149-148 BC), where pretender-king Andriscus and the Achaean League attempt one more revolution, only to have Rome destroy the city of Corinth and officially annex Greece, Macedonia, and Illyria. Concurrently, a dispute between Carthage and Numidia has Rome stepping in and declaring the Third Punic War (149-146 BC), where under the leadership of Scipio Aemilianus, the Romans sieged and decimated the city of Carthage, allowing for a province in Africa. As this is one of many chapters being produced over this project, I would invite you to watch the other chapters dealing with the history of Ancient Rome.

Ancient Rome X - The First Punic War
This is the tenth ofmany chapters in History with a Twist of Lime's look on "The Historical History of Ancient Rome." This chapter looks at the first contest between the soon-to-be rivals of Carthage and Rome over the control of the island of Sicily (264-241 BC). It focuses on the development of the Roman navy, the invention of the corvus which played a critical role, both positive and negative, for the Romans at sea, the failed invasion of Africa, and the surprise naval blockade that tilted the end result of the war in Rome's direction. We're also introduced to the Barca family, beginning with the patriarch, Hamilcar, whose son would truly make a name for himself during the next Punic War.

Ancient Rome XII - The Second Punic War
This is the twelfth ofmany chapters in History with a Twist of Lime's look on "The Historical History of Ancient Rome." This chapter deals with arguably the most well-known event during the Roman Republic: the Second Punic War against the Carthaginians, led by the general Hannibal Barca (218-202 BC). It broadly discusses his march through the Alps, his wooing of Italian allies against Rome, his three huge victories at the Trebia, Lake Trasimene, and Cannae, the Fabian strategy that kept him at bay, and why he never attempted a siege upon Rome. We also see the rise of Roman general Publius Scipio, more commonly known as Scipio Africanus, which gave way to the powerful Roman generals that followed and contributed to the eventual fall of the Republic. Also briefly covered are Rome's siege of Syracuse, conquering of Iberia, and eventual friendship with Numidia that would cause problems in the future. Due to YouTube's imposed time limit, the video's creator would like to apologize for its somewhat rushed nature, and overall lack of deep information. As one can see, the video beats the limit by a mere second, and this was only due to another three or four minutes of information and silly jokes ending up on the cutting room floor, leaving only the bare essentials. The creator would strongly urge anyone interested in the Second Punic War to do some reading of their own in order to see the whole story and the interesting little tidbits that are littered all around this crucial ...

Rome VS Carthage - [264 BC - 113 BC] Punic Wars
The Punic Wars were a series of three wars fought between Rome and Carthage from 264 BC to 146 BC. At the time, they were probably the largest wars that had ever taken place.The term Punic comes from the Latin word Punicus (or Poenicus), meaning "Carthaginian", with reference to the Carthaginians' Phoenician ancestry. The main cause of the Punic Wars was the fight of interests between the existing Carthaginian Empire and the expanding Roman Republic. The Romans were initially interested in expansion via Sicily (which at that time was a cultural melting pot), part of which lay under Carthaginian control. At the start of the first Punic War, Carthage was the dominant power of the Western Mediterranean, with an extensive maritime empire, while Rome was the rapidly ascending power in Italy, but lacked the naval power of Carthage. By the end of the third war, after more than a hundred years and the loss of many hundreds of thousands of soldiers from both sides, Rome had conquered Carthage's empire and completely destroyed the city, becoming the most powerful state of the Western Mediterranean. With the end of the Macedonian wars — which ran concurrently with the Punic Wars — and the defeat of the Seleucid King Antiochus III the Great in the Roman--Syrian War (Treaty of Apamea, 188 BC) in the eastern sea, Rome emerged as the dominant Mediterranean power and one of the most powerful cities in classical antiquity. The Roman victories over Carthage in these wars gave Rome a ...

History of Sicily in one hundred seconds
After a two-months work, i can finally publish my last short documentary: the animated doodle "History of Sicily in one hundred seconds".
As the title suggests, it's a fast-run across a pressing and hyper-compact narration.
Those who knew little or nothing about the events told, will be surprised by the great number of conflicts, wars, monarchies, dominations, martyrs and crimes that plagued the island in millenniums.
I advise to not blink your eyelids as you watch the video: you risk to loose a whole century.
Here's the transcription:
One hundred eighty millions years ago Tethys Ocean splits Pangaea
mountain ranges rise up among coral reeves
it's hot
flora, fauna and dwarf elephants
the volcano Etna grows up by underwater eruptions
then five thousands years ago in Stentinello the first neolithic civilization
Sicanians get overpowered by Sicels
Pantalica is a necropolis for all the dead
phoenician sailors
sea urchins and swordfishes
here come the Greeks
Naxos and Syracuse
theaters carved in rocks or built on a hill like in Taormina
Polyphemus and mermaids
Archimedes and his burning mirrors
Scilla and Cariddi
first Punic War with Rome
Republic and Empire
corn and gladiators, then Vandals and Ostrogoths
Byzantines, Arabians and Muslims
tuna nets, orange and lemon trees
scimitars and sheiks
watering and architecture
ceramics and cassata cakes
Roger II and the Normans
heritage to Suebi
Frederick II and Poetry School
Ciullo d'Alcamo, the first parliament
Aragonese and Angevins
The Vespers when the French drove us mad
then peace of Caltabellotta
House of Hapsburg and Charles V
Bourbon dynasty
Garibaldi who got injuried
Piedmontese army Carabiniers
the Serval, puppetteers
unification of Italy
the Messina Earthquake
bandits and mafia
coppola and lupara
Giovanni Verga and Luigi Pirandello
emigration and First World War
fascism
allied landings, Lucky Luciano
the bandit Giuliano and laced coffee (Sicilian style)
Placido Rizzotto and Peppino Impastato
Tano Badalamenti and Marlon Brando as the godfather
Andreotti and the mafia
the disappearance of Mauro De Mauro
the strange case Mattei and a certain Sindona
lots of Christian Democracy and then Socialist Party
Pizza Connection
Falcone and the Maxi Trial
the Corleonesi and Totò Schillaci at World Cup
Buscetta and Dalla Chiesa
the mafia massacres of Capaci and via d'Amelio
money of Ciancimino, Totò Cuffaro and Raffaele Lombardo
the Strait Bridge and Franza ferryboats
and then, many things still have to happen
but in the end the island will be eaten by the sea.

The Second Punic War - Historical Re-enactment / Educational Documentary
Background information courtesy en.wikipedia.org The Second Punic War, also referred to as The Hannibalic War, (by the Romans) The War Against Hannibal, or "The Carthaginian War", lasted from 218 to 201 BC and involved combatants in the western and eastern Mediterranean. This was the second major war between Carthage and the Roman Republic, with the crucial participation of Numidian-Berber armies and tribes on both sides. The two states had three major conflicts against each other over the course of their existence. They are called the "Punic Wars" because Rome's name for Carthaginians was Punici, due to their Phoenician ancestry. The war is marked by Hannibal's surprising overland journey and his costly crossing of the Alps, followed by his reinforcement by Gaulish allies and crushing victories over Roman armies in the battle of the Trebia and the giant ambush at Trasimene. Against his skill on the battlefield the Romans deployed the Fabian strategy. But because of the increasing unpopularity of this approach, the Romans resorted to a further major field battle. The result was the Roman defeat at Cannae. In consequence many Roman allies went over to Carthage, prolonging the war in Italy for over a decade, during which more Roman armies were destroyed on the battlefield. Despite these setbacks, the Roman forces were more capable in siegecraft than the Carthaginians and recaptured all the major cities that had joined the enemy, as well as defeating a Carthaginian attempt ...

The Second Punic War Animated ~BG Subs~
The Second Punic War (referred to as "The War Against Hannibal" by the Romans) lasted from 218 to 201 BC and involved combatants in the western and eastern Mediterranean. It was the second of three major wars between Carthage and the Roman Republic. They are called the "Punic Wars" because Rome's name for Carthaginians was Punici (older Poenici, due to their Phoenician ancestry. In modern historiography "Punic" is used to make a distinction between Phoenicians and the people of Carthaginian origin. The war is marked by Hannibal's surprising overland journey and his costly crossing of the Alps, followed by his reinforcement by Gaulish allies and crushing victories over Roman armies in the battle of the Trebia and the giant ambush at Trasimene. Against his skill on the battlefield the Romans deployed the Fabian strategy. But because of the increasing unpopularity of this approach, the Romans nevertheless resorted to a further major field battle. The result was the Roman defeat at Cannae. In consequence many Roman allies went over to Carthage, prolonging the war in Italy for over a decade, during which more Roman armies were destroyed on the battlefield. Despite these setbacks, the Roman forces were more capable in siegecraft than the Carthaginians and recaptured all the major cities that had joined the enemy, as well as defeating a Carthaginian attempt to reinforce Hannibal at the battle of the Metaurus. In the meantime in Iberia, which served as the main source of manpower ...
