Hannibal Barca and the Second Punic War

Everything Everywhere Daily: History, Science, Geography & More

In the third century BC, Rome faced its greatest enemy.

One man, a Carthaginian general named Hannibal Barca, led an army into the Italian peninsula and terrorized Rome for over a decade, despite having fewer resources and fighting on Rome's home turf.

He handed the Roman Republic many of its most humiliating defeats and, in the process, developed a reputation as the greatest general in the ancient world.
