In 216 BC, the Battle of Cannae became one of the most studied battles in military history. With Rome fielding around 86,000 men, Hannibal executed a near perfect double envelopment, compressing the Roman infantry into a killing pocket where tens of thousands were cut down in hours.
This video explains why Rome attacked, how Varro and Paullus’ command split shaped the outcome, how Hannibal used Gauls and Spaniards in the center to bait the push, and how African infantry and cavalry closed the trap from the flanks and rear.
We also cover the aftermath: why Hannibal didn’t march on Rome, how Rome rebuilt after catastrophic losses, and how Cannae influenced later commanders and doctrines from ancient warfare to modern operational encirclement.
