00:00Oh, Marquinhos, I can't sleep because I'm so worried about Roma.
00:07And what happened to Roma, captain?
00:10I think he's fine.
00:11Hannibal Barca, that's the Cartagena captain who's going to be on the pitch tonight.
00:17Hannibal? But how is he going to get to us from his location?
00:21Don't you see, Ananac? All roads lead to Roma.
00:24You're right, captain. We've become like shoes on the map.
00:28Hannibal fights with his mind, not his hands.
00:31And no matter how many of us there are, he always wins.
00:35But where's the current Roma captain? Where's the Caesar?
00:39Francesco Totti has resigned two years ago.
00:42And what about the captain, Daniele De Rossi?
00:45He's also resigned. All we have now is De Bala.
00:48And is that De Bala a Mughal fighter?
00:51He's going to die before the start of the battle.
00:55So, this is my chance, captain. Give me this honor.
01:00I'm going out to meet Hannibal and kill him.
01:04You're right, Marquinhos. You're going to face Hannibal and kill him.
01:08I swear to you with my life that I'll kill you.
01:11No Cartagena after today. Glory to the Roman Empire.
01:15Glory to Roma.
01:16Glory to Roma!
01:19What's this? Is this Hannibal Barca?
01:22Yes, it's him. Kill him, Marquinhos, like you killed the other one.
01:26Goodbye, captain. I'm going to miss you a lot.
01:29Wait, wait. Do you love Roma? Do you love Roma?
01:33Roma? Forza Milano.
01:38Marquinhos! Marquinhos!
01:49Peace be upon you, dear viewers of Dahiyeh.
01:54A new episode.
01:56To be honest, we hope you like the episode.
01:59What is this, Abu Hamid? Your Tunisian is a bit bad.
02:02I just wanted to tell you that it's the worst Tunisian dialect you'll ever hear.
02:05Anyway, my dear, Hannibal Alportas.
02:07This, my dear, is a sentence in Latin, meaning Hannibal on the doors.
02:11If you're in Rome in the spring of 216 BC,
02:15you'll hear this sentence being said by members of the Council of Sheikhs,
02:18worried and afraid.
02:19And in a matter of a few hours, it will turn into a storm.
02:22Among the hundreds of thousands of citizens of the city,
02:24everyone has only these three words on their lips.
02:27Hannibal on the doors.
02:28Hannibal, my dear, or Hannibal Barca,
02:30is a military leader from the city of Carthage in North Africa
02:33who marched with his army to attack the young Roman Republic.
02:37He imagined that the Mediterranean would be a barrier in front of him.
02:40He couldn't cross it to reach us.
02:42But he advanced and won a battle after the second one.
02:44And he is now a few steps away from conquering Rome itself.
02:48And that means only one thing.
02:49The end.
02:50Not only the end of the Roman army, but the end of Rome's future,
02:53its history, and everything that belongs to it.
02:55Hannibal on the doors of Rome.
02:56And his imagination began to create for them the scene of the confrontation.
02:59The many tombs, the sound of the horses, and the swords that drowned him.
03:03Hannibal's view, and he is destroying everything.
03:05Hannibal is the angel of death.
03:07The death embodied in a person.
03:09But Hannibal goes against all expectations,
03:11and remains where he was.
03:12He didn't enter Rome.
03:13Reflecting on the decision of the confrontation.
03:15A strange and unexpected decision.
03:17This is one of the decisive decisions that could have changed the history of the world.
03:21Not only in the old way, but until today.
03:23My life, your life, and the lives of all the inhabitants of the earth could have been changed.
03:27But what happened in the end, dear, is that Hannibal didn't sit on the doors.
03:31The story, dear, starts a long time before that.
03:34Before the birth of Hannibal himself.
03:36At that time, the world was witnessing the rise of two powers.
03:39The first one was Carthage in North Africa.
03:41A commercial civilization that wanted to take over new lands.
03:44In order to control its economy through trade.
03:46The second power was Rome, in Southern Europe.
03:48Which was a civilizational civilization, and wanted to join another kingdom under its flag.
03:51And add glory to its glory.
03:53Each power looked at its back, and focused on growing and becoming an empire.
03:57But what?
03:58Its eyes do not ignore the power that grows with it at the same time.
04:00They look at each other, and fear each other.
04:02And each one of them tries to expand beyond its borders.
04:04And between them, dear, the Mediterranean.
04:06One from the north, and the other from the south.
04:08And this made the conflict between them inevitable until it was too late.
04:10And this conflict really happened in 246 B.C.
04:12And it turned into a war, called the First Punic War.
04:16The First Punic War.
04:17Of course, dear, you imagined that it was called the Punic War.
04:19Because they fought each other in the Punic War.
04:21That's wrong.
04:22But dear, this Punic War came from the name that Rome used to call the peoples.
04:26Who were living in Carthage at the time.
04:28The battle was, dear, on the island of Sakallia.
04:30Which the two were confident in.
04:31And as I told you, it was a fierce war.
04:33Because the two powers were almost equal.
04:35And that's what made this war last for 20 years.
04:38Without a decisive victory from either side.
04:40Days went by, and days came.
04:42And in the 23rd year of the war, Carthage lost the battle.
04:45That's right.
04:46It wasn't a big battle.
04:47It wasn't the last building.
04:48But it was the decision of the time.
04:50That's it.
04:51That's too much.
04:52We got bored of the war.
04:53Let us surrender.
04:54How easy is that?
04:55For 23 years, and they surrender in the end?
04:57Dear, the answer to what I told you before.
04:59Carthage, what does it want?
05:01It wants the neighbor.
05:02It wants the business.
05:03Carthage.
05:04It didn't want a civil war.
05:06And it wants you, dear, to take the big one.
05:08The army that Carthage was fighting with.
05:10It wasn't its army.
05:11In fact, dear, they were fighting an army of mercenaries.
05:13They came from the country next to Carthage.
05:15And they took a wage to fight.
05:17Salary workers.
05:18Not the people of your country who fight for glory.
05:20And to save themselves.
05:21Except, of course, the knights, the soldiers, and the money.
05:23This is not a profitable business.
05:25So they said.
05:26That's it, guys.
05:27Congratulations, Roma Kezbo.
05:28Welcome.
05:29Congratulations.
05:30Goodbye.
05:31I'll go back to my job in the mines.
05:32And peace be upon you.
05:33And this, dear Roma, you tell him.
05:34I'm waiting for Carthage.
05:35I hope there's no war.
05:36We'll get the best of it.
05:37This is our job.
05:38This is my business model.
05:39And indeed.
05:40Roma decided to bring the mines of Carthage to the ground.
05:42And impose on it 81 tons of silver.
05:46Every year.
05:47For many years in front of me.
05:48Not only that.
05:49It will be imposed on it that it withdraws its forces from Sakallia Island.
05:52And from other islands.
05:53It wasn't even a place for it.
05:54And so the withdrawal is not profitable at all.
05:56And after many years of Carthage's surrender.
05:58And Roma's punishments.
05:59Hanna Baal Barka appears.
06:01The leader of Carthage's armies in Spain.
06:03He betrayed his father.
06:04What's wrong with this, Abu Ahmed?
06:05What's wrong with Spain now?
06:06We're in a battle between Carthage, Roma, and the sea in front of us.
06:09What's wrong with these people?
06:10Dear, explain yourself.
06:12Roma imposed an annual tax on Carthage.
06:14Carthage will bring wealth.
06:15Where will you pay from?
06:16From their neighbors?
06:17From my uncle?
06:18No, dear, not from my uncle.
06:19Carthage had to expand to other cities.
06:21To be able to get money from it.
06:23To pay taxes with it.
06:24And Hanna Baal is now in a very difficult moment.
06:26He's waiting.
06:27The ambassadors from the city of Roma are coming to him.
06:28And of course, they don't intend to do good.
06:29Hanna Baal, who was a young man at the time.
06:31He's 26 years old.
06:32He's 26 years old.
06:33He's waiting, dear, for the official visit.
06:34He's excited about his memories with his father.
06:36Who taught him everything.
06:37His father is Hamalkar Baraka.
06:38Hamalkar was one of the most important Carthaginian leaders in the First Municipal War.
06:42Ahmed, didn't you tell me that Carthage didn't have an army?
06:44Dear, Baraka's family was different.
06:45This family was really warriors.
06:47But Hamalkar wasn't just a warrior.
06:49He was one of the most important Carthaginian leaders.
06:51And he's the one who chose Spain to be the land that will bring wealth from it.
06:54And indeed, Baraka's family established a city on Spanish soil.
06:57They called it New Carthage.
06:58I want to tell you, dear, that this city hasn't been found yet.
07:00And it's called Carthage.
07:01There's a theory that says that Barcelona, in Spain, is named after Baraka's family.
07:05Barclona.
07:06Can you imagine how much this family was influenced by him?
07:08Dear, when he was waiting for the Roman ambassador,
07:10he remembered one of the most important days of his life with his father.
07:13That day, he was only 9 years old.
07:15When his father decided to take him to a religious celebration in Carthage.
07:18And here, notice how sad I am.
07:20His father was broken.
07:21Hamalkar, throughout his war with Rome, he didn't lose a single battle.
07:24That's why he was really sad about his country's surrender.
07:27Hannibal was next to his father, looking at the religious men,
07:29and they were surrounding him with fire.
07:30And they were offering a sacrifice to the god Baal.
07:32And here, Hannibal's father took his son from his hand,
07:34and made him kneel in front of the sacrifice.
07:36And he swore to him that as long as he lived and breathed,
07:39Hannibal would remain an eternal enemy to Rome.
07:42Hannibal rejected the oath from the bottom of his heart,
07:44and decided that he would never break this oath.
07:46Hannibal was overwhelmed by his thoughts about the sound of the arrival of the Roman ambassadors.
07:49The ambassador looked at Hannibal, the 20-year-old, as if he was a new family member,
07:52and talked to him about the arrival of Rome from Carthage in Spain.
07:56Especially that Hannibal in Spain had huge expansions.
07:59Let's go back to what I said in the beginning.
08:02Why did the war begin?
08:03Because he was afraid of expanding his influence.
08:05If you start to expand your influence, you could put me in danger.
08:07Here, Rome felt that Carthage did not forbid it.
08:09And then, with the ambassadors, Hannibal received a clear message.
08:12Stick to your borders.
08:13The city of Saginatum, which is in the east of Spain, is ours.
08:15And if your army crosses a single line within its borders,
08:18we will declare war on you.
08:19Hannibal, looking at the ambassadors, with a look at their words, was poor.
08:22On the eve of his father's defeat, on the day of the announcement of Carthage's surrender,
08:24and the oath he swore, Hannibal stood up and told them,
08:26I will not stop expanding.
08:28And they told him with a nice surprise,
08:29next time you will not need to send me an ambassador,
08:31because I will come to you myself.
08:32No, Hannibal, stop being stupid.
08:34Will you go and occupy Rome?
08:35Rome, my dear, was expecting a response like this,
08:37because it knew very well that Hannibal hated him.
08:39But it did not expect that the response would be so fast,
08:42and in this way, on the ground of reality.
08:44And in a short while, my dear,
08:45Hannibal stood at the head of his army and left.
08:47I told you, Rome does not want us to leave this city.
08:49My dear, come with me.
08:54And indeed, Hannibal invaded the city,
08:56and took it to the ground.
08:57And in the moment he invaded the city,
08:59he was officially lighting the fire of the second war.
09:04And the young man, who was 26 years old,
09:05succeeded in the ability of this war,
09:07to be at the gates of Rome itself,
09:09and to embody the worst nightmare.
09:11Rome never imagined that Hannibal could reach Rome,
09:14or even get close to it.
09:16The point is, how would Hannibal go to Rome?
09:18Look, my dear, I have a map with me.
09:19It is obvious from the first moment that the matter is simple.
09:21This is Rome, this is Carthage,
09:23and this is the Mediterranean Sea between them.
09:24He would gather his men,
09:25board a ship,
09:26and go there.
09:27But on the ground of reality,
09:28this was completely impossible.
09:29Because, simply,
09:30the Carthaginian fleet was completely destroyed
09:32in the First World War.
09:34So this idea, unfortunately, is out.
09:35You will tell me, Abu Ahmed,
09:36there is a difference,
09:37it takes more time,
09:38but it does not matter.
09:39I mean, Hannibal,
09:40if he freed his army from Spain,
09:41and went to sell it to Rome,
09:42it will expand.
09:43This is a good idea, my dear,
09:44but it has a small problem.
09:45Look, my dear,
09:46the mountain in front of you,
09:47this is Mount Barones.
09:48Imagine when Mount Barones dies.
09:49It is not nice, my son.
09:50Look, my dear,
09:51this is Mount Amnon.
09:52And this, my dear,
09:53is the River Rhône.
09:54And for Hannibal to reach Rome,
09:55by land,
09:56he had to go with his army
09:57through all this,
09:58passing through two mountains and a river.
09:59Notice, my dear,
10:00that Hannibal went on this campaign
10:01on purpose.
10:02Carthage itself
10:03did not deal with him.
10:04No one offered him any help.
10:05This is because
10:06a large part of the leaders in Carthage
10:07were already against the war
10:08against Rome from the start.
10:09They wanted him to run,
10:10to build a business,
10:11and they were against
10:12helping him
10:13with any form of war.
10:14So, my dear,
10:15in the end,
10:16he became the only leader
10:17in a small army
10:18and in a strange land
10:19fighting a huge country.
10:20Abu Hamid,
10:21this man is so poor.
10:22My dear,
10:23you are the poor one.
10:24I swear to God.
10:25Hannibal had a very heavy army.
10:26He was the only one who was pregnant.
10:27He had, my dear,
10:28100,000 soldiers
10:29and 19,000 horses
10:30and 37 war elephants.
10:31What?
10:32What war elephant?
10:33Abu Hamid,
10:34you are talking nonsense.
10:35Carthage, my dear,
10:36has been using the elephants
10:37to fight them for a long time.
10:38My dear,
10:39they were killed in the war
10:40and the elephants
10:41were hunting them.
10:42They were used to fighting them
10:43and no one saw the elephants.
10:44This is a very big issue.
10:45But, my dear,
10:46they all told you
10:47that this is Oscar Fayushkar,
10:48but there is no need for it.
10:49The problem is
10:50that it is not over yet.
10:51How are they going to get through
10:52all of this?
10:53This man is coming to visit
10:54and he has 37 elephants.
10:55And here,
10:56he went to the temple
10:57and they told him
10:58that he is a man of God.
10:59And he, my dear,
11:00knew them as a man
11:01because he went.
11:02Anyway,
11:03in a serious military battle,
11:04your uncle Hannibal decided
11:05to take his army
11:06and his horse
11:07with his elephants
11:08and ride them
11:09in the mountains.
11:10Let's go, guys,
11:11we are not going to celebrate
11:12like this.
11:13They have elephants.
11:14How are they going to cross
11:15the Rhône river?
11:16Are we going to make them boats
11:17so that the elephants
11:18can ride them?
11:19And he kept walking
11:20through the mountains
11:21in a temperature
11:22below zero.
11:23Did you see
11:24how we said it in three sentences
11:25and it turned out to be easy?
11:26But the journey
11:27was very difficult.
11:28And the Romans,
11:29as much as they saw
11:30that this is impossible,
11:31did not pay attention
11:32to the horse.
11:33They saw it as a flying horse.
11:34This is reinforced
11:35by our forces
11:36and we take it to Spain
11:37to reinforce it
11:38with an army
11:39and bring it to Choual.
11:40Hannibal's plan succeeded.
11:41Can you imagine
11:42what happened?
11:43That he really
11:44survived all this
11:45and that Hannibal Barca
11:46was his army.
11:47He arrived in Italy
11:48and saw
11:49the madmen of Choual.
11:50My dear,
11:51it seems
11:52that we are jealous
11:53of Hannibal.
11:54Why, Abu Ahmed?
11:55Did he come cold
11:56with the baroness?
11:57Hannibal looked
11:58at his soldiers
11:59who arrived with him
12:00in Italy
12:01and realized
12:02that it was not
12:03the army
12:04that moved with him.
12:05Either victory
12:06or death.
12:07Are these the guys
12:08who were with us
12:09in Italy?
12:10No,
12:11they were with Hannibal.
12:12My dear,
12:13half of his army
12:14died
12:15on the difficult
12:16road to Rome.
12:17Those who survived
12:18and arrived
12:19arrived
12:20in the shadow
12:21of human beings.
12:22After all this
12:23suffering,
12:24for weeks
12:25of hunger
12:26and cold,
12:27there was no
12:28place to rest.
12:29And there is still
12:30no place to rest
12:31because Rome
12:32knew how to reach them
12:33and very soon
12:34it will be forbidden.
12:35At that time,
12:36Hannibal stood
12:37on a hill
12:38and of course
12:39it was not
12:40Hannibal
12:41who was
12:42addressing his soldiers
12:43at that time.
12:44On the other side
12:45stood Scipio the Great,
12:46Scipio the Elder,
12:47the leader
12:48of the Roman army
12:49and he told his army
12:50that the matter
12:51is simple.
12:52We are fighting
12:53like men
12:54starving and
12:55tired
12:56and we are here
12:57sitting in our country
12:58resting
12:59eating
13:00and drinking
13:01not tired.
13:02There is only
13:03one blow
13:04from Rome
13:05and we will hide
13:06these people
13:07with the wine
13:08of glory
13:09and revenge.
13:10And very soon
13:11they will know
13:12their place.
13:13The Roman soldiers
13:14felt that they
13:15were facing
13:16an easy victory
13:17and the matter
13:18was not
13:19going to
13:20be easy for them.
13:21Indeed,
13:22the two armies
13:23met
13:24on the banks
13:25of a river
13:26called
13:27the Sina river.
13:28At that moment,
13:29my dear,
13:30the smile
13:31disappeared
13:32from the faces
13:33of the Roman soldiers.
13:34Scipio the Great
13:35and the Roman army
13:36felt that
13:37their father
13:38did not judge
13:39his opponent
13:40correctly.
13:41We are not
13:42in front of a young
13:43soldier,
13:44we are in front of
13:45a very smart
13:46commander.
13:47We have to learn
13:48from him.
13:49It means a lot
13:50my dear,
13:51and every battle
13:52that a Roman
13:53enters
13:54with Hannibal,
13:55you discover
13:56that he is
13:57a worthy opponent.
13:58Hannibal,
13:59in every battle,
14:00almost
14:01his army
14:02is half
14:03the number
14:04of the Roman army
14:05in the world.
14:06There is no other
14:07solution than
14:08to jump on Hannibal
14:09and attack him
14:10and kill him.
14:11My dear,
14:12don't cheat.
14:13This is the
14:14battle of Cannae
14:15that a Roman
14:16entered with.
14:17On August 2,
14:18216 BC,
14:19a Roman army
14:20gathered 70,000
14:21soldiers
14:22to face Hannibal.
14:23The largest army
14:24in history
14:25until this battle.
14:26He is not fighting
14:27us with his mind
14:28and his brain,
14:29we will fight him
14:30with our brains.
14:31When Hannibal
14:32looked at
14:33the Roman army,
14:34he said,
14:35if you want to
14:36kill its forces,
14:37you have to
14:38do it well.
14:39He said,
14:40we will
14:41enter the ranks
14:42and kill them.
14:43Hannibal
14:44always had
14:45fewer soldiers
14:46and fought
14:47on a strange
14:48land.
14:49There is no
14:50reason
14:51for him
14:52to be an enemy.
14:53The Roman army
14:54looked at
14:55the ranks of
14:56Hannibal
14:57and all they
14:58saw
14:59was a line
15:00of soldiers
15:01that they
15:02could cross
15:03easily.
15:04Hannibal
15:05stood up
15:06and looked
15:07at them
15:08and laughed
15:09because
15:10he did not see
15:11the victory
15:12of the Romans
15:13that they
15:14saw.
15:15No,
15:16he saw
15:17a bread
15:18that was
15:19going to
15:20be hunted
15:21by those
15:22who
15:23stabbed it
15:24with his
15:25hand.
15:26Suddenly,
15:27the line
15:28of this
15:29humiliating
15:30army
15:31gradually
15:32turned
15:33into
15:34a
15:35line
15:36of
15:37a
15:38soldier
15:39that
15:40they
15:41could
15:42not
15:43cross.
15:44Hannibal
15:45used
15:46his roar
15:47against
15:48the Romans
15:49and every
15:50minute
15:51he killed
15:52100 Roman
15:53soldiers.
15:5495,
15:5596,
15:5697,
15:5798,
15:5898,
15:59100.
16:00Next.
16:01They buried their heads in it to deceive themselves and die quickly.
16:04And those who lived among them were recruited by Hannibal's soldiers to kill them.
16:07They didn't want to be tortured.
16:08Today, it is said that 50,000 Roman soldiers died in it.
16:12That is, about 20% of the number of Roman soldiers who were able to fight.
16:17Among them, the Roman leader himself and about three members of the Council of Tribes.
16:20Today, it was the biggest defeat in the long history of Rome.
16:23After that, my dear, the United won 7-1 in the Champions League.
16:26That was the Shia army, not the Kurds at all.
16:28My dear, the Council of Tribes was the masterpiece in Hannibal's life.
16:32The perfect battle.
16:33My dear, how did you win while you were the weak side on the back?
16:37How can you use a strategy or a genius idea in a fight?
16:40The Council of Tribes became the best example for any military leader.
16:43And it was a direct inspiration for many of the leaders.
16:46From the first Germans to take over France from the First World War.
16:48And the strategy was inspired by the battle of Hannibal in the Council of Tribes.
16:53When the devastating defeat reached Rome.
16:56When the devastating defeat reached Rome.
16:58The cry and the cries spread everywhere.
17:01All the houses of Rome had victims of Hannibal.
17:03People ran to the temples and prayed for salvation.
17:06And everyone was convinced that a few days and Hannibal would enter Rome.
17:09Which they were talking about for days.
17:11The terror that Rome experienced at that time will remain engraved in its memory forever.
17:15And despite all this, Rome, which suffered the biggest defeat in its history.
17:18It made a decision that no other country would dare to take.
17:21It decided that there was no Islam.
17:23And that it would fight to the last breath.
17:26There is a famous Roman saying that says.
17:28The winner does not count as a winner until he confesses his defeat.
17:35And Rome simply refused to confess its defeat.
17:38And indeed, Rome gathered an army instead of being defeated.
17:40Any man over the age of 17 will go to the army.
17:43Even the slaves who were not allowed to fight.
17:46Soldiers stood up for their freedom.
17:48And indeed, 8,000 people joined.
17:50And the Roman army moved to the borders to secure it.
17:53And in the heart of the city, a law appeared.
17:55Which prohibits the appearance of any sign of destruction.
17:57The enemy will enter.
17:58But the first line.
17:59And most of all.
18:00When Hannibal sent his messengers to negotiate.
18:02On the many bribes that he seized in the battle of Cannae.
18:05The government refused to accept them.
18:07And told them, leave the bribes with you.
18:09I don't want them.
18:10Despite the fact that Rome was in dire need of soldiers.
18:13They did this, my dear, to negotiate on bribes.
18:16It has a very important meaning.
18:18That the war will be over.
18:19And Rome admitted that it was defeated.
18:22And this is simply unacceptable.
18:25The second thing.
18:26This means that Hannibal wants to negotiate.
18:29This means, my dear, that he wants to negotiate.
18:31This means that you are tired of the war.
18:33Rome was destined for salvation.
18:36After the defeat of Aelia.
18:37For two reasons.
18:38The first reason.
18:39The mind of the killer.
18:40The second reason.
18:41The reason why we started this episode.
18:42Hannibal, when he was at the gates.
18:44He decided to go back.
18:45And not move to Rome.
18:46Why didn't he do that?
18:47What, I didn't tell you at first?
18:48I'm sorry, my dear.
18:49I didn't tell you at first.
18:50I didn't tell you at first.
18:51Because, I mean,
18:52I don't want you to complete the rest of the episode.
18:53Writing techniques.
18:54Games and moves.
18:55Art and science.
18:56The construction of Rome.
18:58Hannibal's decision to go back,
18:59Had a huge impact.
19:00Not only on the subject of war.
19:01This changed the shape of the whole world.
19:03A huge impact,
19:04Until it reached you.
19:05Look around you.
19:06You will find that Rome had an impact everywhere.
19:08From the first languages.
19:09Like French, Italian and Spanish.
19:11And the system of democratic rule.
19:12And the judiciary.
19:13Which a lot of countries in the world
19:14Didn't have until now.
19:15Rome is the one who laid the foundation stone for all of this.
19:17My dear.
19:18Even the national flag,
19:19Which we are still walking on.
19:20Is named after a god.
19:21And a Roman leader.
19:22Imagine, my dear,
19:23What your life would have been like.
19:24If Hannibal,
19:25After the battle of Cannae,
19:26Moved to Rome and destroyed it.
19:27And Carthage came to it.
19:28It would have remained the great power.
19:29And its impact,
19:30Would probably continue with us,
19:31Until today.
19:32But the most important question now.
19:33Why didn't Hannibal enter Rome?
19:34This, my dear,
19:35Is a question,
19:36That confused the historians,
19:37For a long time.
19:38And the first logical answer,
19:39That Hannibal,
19:40If he had moved to Rome,
19:41It would have been very difficult
19:42To put it under siege.
19:43Remember, my dear,
19:44That Hannibal,
19:45Was fighting with less soldiers.
19:47Those, my dear,
19:48Execute tactics,
19:49And conquer a battle.
19:50But to besiege a city,
19:51With the size of Rome,
19:52Surrounded by walls,
19:53And guarded by a huge number,
19:54Of soldiers.
19:55You need,
19:56Very large numbers,
19:57And equipment.
19:58It wasn't with Hannibal.
19:59And this answer,
20:00Confirms Hannibal's strategy,
20:01In the war.
20:02It wasn't his goal,
20:03To attack Rome.
20:04My dear,
20:05To negotiate.
20:06Remember,
20:07When I told you,
20:08He went on this campaign alone.
20:09And I know,
20:10That whoever has the strength,
20:11And intelligence of his plan,
20:12In the end,
20:13He is the only leader,
20:14On a small army,
20:15Against a huge country.
20:16And here,
20:17Comes Rome,
20:18In response to Hannibal,
20:19For everything he did.
20:20And make sure,
20:21That there is no one controlling,
20:22Except one empire.
20:23It's called Rome.
20:25The second civil war,
20:26Was a war between Hannibal,
20:27With his army,
20:28And Rome.
20:29The city of Rome,
20:30Which is the center of power,
20:31In the years before the war,
20:32Was expanding,
20:33Very large in Italy.
20:34And many cities joined it,
20:35Ruled by divided tribes.
20:36And Hannibal,
20:37In the beginning,
20:38Wasn't his goal,
20:39To conquer Rome.
20:40This is an impossible dream to come true.
20:41His goal was,
20:42To break their suspicions,
20:43And weaken them.
20:44The plan was,
20:45Dealt in two ways.
20:46The first,
20:47In the battlefield,
20:48And Hannibal,
20:49Succeeded in it.
20:50And the second way,
20:51Was to steal from Rome,
20:52Their allies.
20:53Hannibal saw,
20:54That the expansion of Rome,
20:55Was the secret of its power.
20:56And if he succeeded,
20:57In withdrawing from it,
20:58The balance of power,
20:59Would change completely.
21:00And Rome would become,
21:01Just a normal city,
21:02Without any influence.
21:03And she wouldn't be able,
21:04To impose her authority,
21:05On Carthage.
21:06As she started to do,
21:07After the first civil war.
21:08And Hannibal's plan,
21:09Began to succeed,
21:10After Cannae.
21:11Many of Rome's allies,
21:12Changed their ranks,
21:13Because Hannibal,
21:14Had to protect these cities,
21:15Against any attack,
21:16That Rome would make against them.
21:17And Rome,
21:18Knew how to use this point,
21:19To its advantage.
21:20After the terrible defeat,
21:21That Hannibal brought to Rome,
21:22Rome learned the lesson.
21:23And she knew,
21:24That this was a cunning plan,
21:25And she couldn't face it,
21:26Directly.
21:27Because,
21:28Simply,
21:29She would be defeated,
21:30Like every time.
21:31But it's true,
21:32That she weakened him,
21:33In every possible way.
21:34And there was no better way,
21:35To deal with this,
21:36Than for Rome to betray,
21:37Hannibal's allies,
21:38Who promised to protect them.
21:39Hannibal knew,
21:40That Rome would attack,
21:41And asked for his brother's support,
21:42On the head of a large army,
21:43And he went to Rome.
21:44But dear,
21:45Let me tell you,
21:46That Rome was smart,
21:47At the time.
21:48Oh, Gabriel,
21:49Don't tell me.
21:50Rome,
21:51Was going to attack,
21:52Two cities,
21:53From Hannibal's allies,
21:54But they were two cities,
21:55Away from each other,
21:56And they were attacking,
21:57At the same time.
21:58So,
21:59Hannibal,
22:00Couldn't save any of them.
22:01And this,
22:02Was a strong message,
22:03To the cities,
22:04That he had to defend.
22:05You allied with the wrong person,
22:06Because Rome,
22:07Was able to defeat you,
22:08At any time.
22:09And the message reached,
22:10Indeed.
22:11With all these difficult circumstances,
22:12There was a small ray of hope.
22:13My brother,
22:14Who came from Spain!
22:15Hannibal,
22:16Was sitting,
22:17Waiting for his brother,
22:18Who came from Spain.
22:19Who could really,
22:20Change the balance of the war.
22:21And while he was in the camp,
22:22He was sitting among his soldiers,
22:23Telling them,
22:24I miss my brother,
22:25I want to see him,
22:26To save us from this war.
22:27So he saw his face,
22:28And he was happy.
22:29So,
22:30A bag was thrown at him,
22:31From far away,
22:32Hannibal opened the bag,
22:33And realized,
22:34That he was in front of Rome.
22:35The good news,
22:36Is that,
22:37He saw his brother's face.
22:38The bad news,
22:39Is that,
22:40He realized,
22:41That any help,
22:42That was coming his way,
22:43Was already spent.
22:44And that this war,
22:45If it continues,
22:46It will not continue,
22:47Except by himself.
22:4815 years,
22:49The situation remains as it is.
22:50Disputes happen between the two sides,
22:51But the battle does not develop completely.
22:52Hannibal makes alliances,
22:53And loses them.
22:54And makes other alliances.
22:55A war,
22:56Where there is no victory.
22:57Between the two sides,
22:58The first is Hannibal,
22:59Who is weaker than him,
23:00To attack Rome.
23:01And Rome,
23:02Is weaker than her,
23:03To face Hannibal.
23:04With what he did,
23:05With his history,
23:06Both sides,
23:07Are almost equal.
23:08Someone must intervene,
23:09To stop Hannibal,
23:10From attacking Rome.
23:11Do you want something?
23:12Hannibal's way,
23:13In the war,
23:14Was completely new,
23:15For Rome.
23:16And that's what,
23:17Instead of a battle,
23:18Made it look like,
23:19He was playing a strange game,
23:20Unlike what Rome,
23:21Is used to playing.
23:22A game,
23:23Is the one who sets the rules,
23:24Is the one who knows how to win.
23:25And here,
23:26Rome realized the truth.
23:27It is not possible,
23:28To fight Hannibal,
23:29With his brain.
23:30If we want to win,
23:31We must fight him,
23:32With his brain.
23:33We need,
23:34A new list,
23:35A different school,
23:36In the war.
23:37Other than,
23:38Who appears,
23:39The leader,
23:40Scipio,
23:41The little one.
23:42This boy,
23:43Just like Hannibal,
23:44He grew up hating Hannibal,
23:45And he swore loyalty to Rome.
23:47Just like Hannibal,
23:48He swore loyalty to Carthage.
23:49Both of them,
23:50Have the same background,
23:51And the same motives.
23:52All the battles,
23:53That Rome took,
23:54Scipio,
23:55Was a part of them.
23:56He fights with his hand,
23:57According to his fate,
23:58But his brain is working,
23:59Watching his enemy,
24:00And studying his style.
24:01Scipio doesn't learn,
24:02Fighting and tactics,
24:03In Rome.
24:04He learns them,
24:05From Hannibal.
24:06Scipio realized,
24:07That the battle,
24:08Was a tactical one,
24:09And that's the sentence,
24:10We started the episode with.
24:11Hannibal,
24:12At the gates,
24:13We have an enemy,
24:14On the battlefield,
24:15It's impossible to face him,
24:16Directly.
24:17But,
24:18Why does the war,
24:19Happen in Rome?
24:20And here,
24:21Comes the genius idea,
24:22Of Scipio.
24:23Just like Hannibal,
24:24Took us as his brothers,
24:25And moved to the battlefield,
24:26Let's make,
24:27The people of Carthage say,
24:28Scipio,
24:29At the gates,
24:30And lead the war,
24:31To Hannibal's land.
24:32Not all the Roman leaders,
24:33Had this plan.
24:34This is a big risk,
24:35How can you take your army,
24:36And your enemy,
24:37At the gates?
24:38It's true,
24:39There's a big possibility,
24:40That Hannibal will go to his country,
24:41And save it,
24:42But there's also a possibility,
24:43That he'll take advantage of the opportunity,
24:44And attack you.
24:45Not all the leaders,
24:46Were loyal to Scipio,
24:47The little one.
24:48Why little one?
24:49The little one.
24:50The boy was actually,
24:51Smaller than Jacob,
24:52He's not alone.
24:53But that's,
24:54Guys.
24:55But,
24:56After a lot of negotiations,
24:57Scipio convinced,
24:58The Roman government,
24:59And went to the North African coast,
25:00With his fleet,
25:01To finally move the war,
25:02To the enemy's land.
25:03Scipio,
25:04Succeeded in Africa,
25:05Where Hannibal failed,
25:06In Rome.
25:07He succeeded,
25:08In taking the Carthaginian allies,
25:09To his side.
25:10In all of Hannibal's battles,
25:11One of the most important points,
25:12Of his strength,
25:13Was his imagination,
25:14Or his fortune.
25:15These imaginations,
25:16Came from a country,
25:17Next to Carthage,
25:18Called Numidia.
25:19Yes, Abu Ahmed,
25:20Are you an imagination?
25:21Yes, my dear,
25:22In the house,
25:23I've always been an imagination.
25:24Abu Ahmed,
25:25Can you stop saying that?
25:26Numidia, my dear,
25:27Is almost Algeria now.
25:28Scipio,
25:29Took advantage of the ambitions,
25:30Of one of the leaders,
25:31Of this country,
25:32In the government,
25:33And promised him,
25:34To guarantee his loyalty,
25:35And to deprive Carthage,
25:36And Hannibal,
25:37Of one of their most important allies.
25:38Scipio,
25:39Learned from Hannibal,
25:40To study the battlefield well,
25:41And to know how to use,
25:42The place to his advantage.
25:43That's why,
25:44He fought Carthage,
25:45Because he noticed,
25:46That the Carthaginian soldiers,
25:47Their camps,
25:48Were like,
25:49Small bricks,
25:50Stuck to each other.
25:51And he thought,
25:52That if he went to any of these bricks,
25:53And burned them,
25:54The fire,
25:55Would burn the whole camp,
25:56In the name of God.
25:57And that's how,
25:58A large part of his enemies,
25:59Were eliminated,
26:00Without anyone,
26:01Entering his face,
26:02Or losing a soldier,
26:03That's what Scipio did,
26:04When he was young,
26:05He became a great leader,
26:06And he showed his dignity,
26:07In front of a whole army,
26:08He was sleeping all night,
26:09And he taught Carthage,
26:10In many battles,
26:11And here,
26:12A member of the Carthaginian government,
26:13Came out,
26:14To negotiate with him,
26:15And asked him,
26:16For a peace treaty,
26:17And to get rid of,
26:18This long war.
26:19That's not the problem dear,
26:20The problem is,
26:21That the Carthaginians,
26:22Wanted to hand Hannibal,
26:23Over to his family,
26:24And promised Scipio,
26:25That they were against this war,
26:26From the beginning.
26:27I swear to God,
26:28Scipio promised him,
26:29And said,
26:30Let's open this page together,
26:31And indeed,
26:32A peace treaty,
26:33Was signed with them.
26:34I think dear,
26:35That the story,
26:36Has come to an end,
26:37At this point.
26:38Anyway,
26:39Carthage,
26:40Really asked Hannibal,
26:41From Rome,
26:42But,
26:43When he arrived there,
26:44Carthage heard him,
26:45And said,
26:46As long as Hannibal,
26:47Is working on this,
26:48Scipio won't go to war,
26:49So,
26:50Let's end this story,
26:51But at least,
26:52We won.
26:53And indeed,
26:54Hannibal enters the battle,
26:55With the army of Rome,
26:56And in the city of Zama,
26:57Which is 100 miles away,
26:58From Carthage,
26:59He meets the army,
27:00But this time,
27:01He stands in front of Nidalee,
27:02He understands his mind,
27:03And plays his own game,
27:04And won't be tempted,
27:05By any trap,
27:06Or any means.
27:07On the contrary,
27:08This was a very important mistake,
27:09In Hannibal's army.
27:10If you notice, dear,
27:11A very important thing,
27:12Is that Hannibal,
27:13All these years,
27:14Has been deceived,
27:15And he leads an army,
27:16With a formation,
27:17From many parts of the world,
27:18Spain,
27:19Libya,
27:20Algeria,
27:21France.
27:22These are groups, dear,
27:23Not an army.
27:24So it's normal,
27:25That these soldiers,
27:26Don't speak the same language.
27:27And this,
27:28Was difficult for Hannibal,
27:29To change his plan,
27:30Because he was in the hands of Scipio,
27:31Who was hard to predict his attacks.
27:32And let's not forget, dear,
27:33Hannibal's secret weapon,
27:34The imagination of Nomedia,
27:35Which is now,
27:36In the hands of Scipio.
27:37And at the end of the day,
27:38October 17th,
27:39202 BC,
27:40Hannibal is defeated,
27:41In the battle of Zama.
27:42The leader,
27:43Who has never lost a battle,
27:44Loses in this day,
27:45The war.
27:46He loses,
27:47With his weapon,
27:48With his tactic,
27:49Hannibal will not be defeated,
27:50Except Hannibal.
27:51After the battle of Zama,
27:52Carthage agrees,
27:53With the conditions of peace,
27:54Mozilla.
27:55Mozilla,
27:56Much more,
27:57Than what was agreed upon,
27:59After the first battle of Munea.
28:00Hannibal,
28:01Will swallow the bitterness of defeat,
28:02And give up his role,
28:03As a leader of the armies,
28:04And become,
28:05A man,
28:06Of the men of the government.
28:07He tries,
28:08To fix the corruption inside him,
28:09But unfortunately,
28:10This made him,
28:11Have a lot of enemies.
28:12The hatred reached them,
28:13That they try to hand him over,
28:14To Rome.
28:15Oh dear,
28:16Hannibal,
28:17When he knew this information,
28:18He ran away from Carthage,
28:19And remained,
28:20For the rest of his life,
28:21A fugitive.
28:22But,
28:23He did not forget his father's promise,
28:24That he would remain an eternal enemy,
28:25To Rome.
28:26He used to go to the countries,
28:27Of his king's military advisers.
28:28And there is one,
28:29From this country,
28:30Rome is victorious,
28:31And its forces,
28:32Stand in front of Hannibal's house.
28:33When he hears,
28:34The sound of their footsteps,
28:35From afar,
28:36He realizes that,
28:37The journey is over.
28:38His father's eternal enemy,
28:39Decided,
28:40For the last moment,
28:41That he will resist.
28:42He will not give them,
28:43The honor of arresting him.
28:44He will not enter Rome,
28:45As a prisoner,
28:46Trapped in chains.
28:47The one who swore,
28:48In front of his father,
28:49On the hatred of Rome,
28:50Is impossible to enter it,
28:51When he is humiliated.
28:52And as he is used to,
28:53He decided that his fate,
28:54Was in his hands.
28:55And he drank from the poison,
28:56And on his lips,
28:57His last words.
28:58Let me now,
28:59End that life,
29:00That was always,
29:01A struggle for Rome.
29:02As we all know dear,
29:03History is written,
29:04By the victors.
29:05And this is the case,
29:06With the story of Rome,
29:07And Carthage.
29:08All that I told you,
29:09Came from the historians of Rome.
29:10This is their version of the story.
29:11I ask you,
29:12Why didn't you tell me,
29:13The version of Carthage?
29:14For the same reason,
29:15That is why,
29:16Until now,
29:17We don't know,
29:18If Carthage had won,
29:19What would have happened to the world?
29:20Simply dear,
29:21Rome completely erased,
29:22Carthage,
29:23From the face of the earth.
29:24After the second civil war,
29:25Carthage avoided,
29:26The enemy of Rome.
29:27It left it from the war,
29:28And concentrated all its strength,
29:29In trade.
29:30And this made it,
29:31Reappear again,
29:32In a few years.
29:33Especially,
29:34Those who fight Rome,
29:35Are just leaders,
29:36They don't protect them.
29:37They don't make us do anything.
29:38And on the day of Zanna,
29:39We will hand them over,
29:40As we did during the treaty.
29:41And this,
29:42Was a great fear for Rome,
29:43Which it didn't forget,
29:44For forty years,
29:45After Hannibal's death.
29:46Which made him,
29:47Get out of Carthage,
29:48And threaten them.
29:49And that's why dear,
29:50Rome started the third civil war.
29:51But I won't tell you about it dear,
29:52Because it simply,
29:53Wasn't a war.
29:54It was a battle.
29:55But what happened,
29:56Was a massacre.
29:57Before the war even started,
29:58Rome ordered Carthage,
29:59To hand over all its weapons,
30:00If it didn't want to be destroyed.
30:01And unfortunately,
30:02Carthage heard the words,
30:03And did this,
30:04And expected peace.
30:05But Carthage was surprised,
30:06By Rome attacking it,
30:07And besieging it.
30:08A siege that lasted,
30:09Three full years.
30:10Three years,
30:11Of isolated citizens,
30:12Protecting their land,
30:13And trying to guard their doors.
30:14Until one day,
30:15Rome managed to break through,
30:16The city.
30:17And for six days,
30:18Searching for slaughter,
30:19In everything it had.
30:20And on the seventh day,
30:21It accepted,
30:22To leave what it had,
30:23On the condition,
30:24That it becomes a slave to Rome.
30:25And after the massacre,
30:26The Roman army,
30:27Was buried in Carthage's land,
30:28And burned every door,
30:29That stood in front of it.
30:30Carthage's ships,
30:31Didn't leave Carthage,
30:32Except for the one,
30:33That was buried in the ground.
30:34And the chances,
30:35Of the appearance of a new Hannibal,
30:36Were zero.
30:37I know dear,
30:38How you feel right now,
30:39Because I feel it too.
30:40I wish the story,
30:41Ended with a happy ending.
30:42At least,
30:43This wasn't Carthage's fate.
30:44But I wish,
30:45If Carthage's leaders,
30:46Put their hands in Hannibal's hands,
30:47He could have won,
30:48And it would have been,
30:49At least,
30:50A happy ending.
30:52Maybe,
30:53Hannibal lost the war,
30:54With Rome,
30:55But he won the war,
30:56With the Nicaeans.
30:57In the middle of a lot of names,
30:58He came and went,
30:59No one knew anything about him.
31:00What he did,
31:01Was amazing,
31:02To the extent,
31:03That his enemies,
31:04Were the ones who told us about him.
31:05Dear uncle,
31:06Your hostility,
31:07To your enemies,
31:08Makes you look this great.
31:09Be careful,
31:10With your hostility,
31:11To your family,
31:12To your people,
31:13And your hostility,
31:14To you.
31:15Rome's hostility,
31:16Told us,
31:17What Hannibal did.
31:18And it's true,
31:19History writes the winner.
31:20They don't know,
31:21That a great Roman leader,
31:22Knows that,
31:23He is the man,
31:24Who defeated,
31:25Hannibal Baraka.
31:26That's it, dear uncle.
31:27This was today's story.
31:28Soon,
31:29Or not soon,
31:30You'll see the last episode,
31:31And the new episode,
31:32Coming soon.

31:35Dear uncle,
31:36In the end,
31:37I love the people of Tunisia,
31:38And the artist,
31:39Saber Al-Ruba'i.
31:40No one in the world,
31:41Deserves to challenge the world,
31:42For the sake of,
31:43Hannibal's friends.
31:44No, dear uncle,
31:45I apologize, Saber.
31:46No, from what you want,
31:47Stand next to what you want.
31:48I love Tunisia a lot.
