It has been great working with you on this miniseries, man! A lot of *Knowledge* shared while we *Marched* creating these videos. More to come :)
Absolutely awesome collaboration guys, keep it coming like this! Huge fans of both of your channels! Cheers to more like this!
Nice video and very informative and very entertaining and very satisfaction more videos.
No where in any History Books have I read that the Elephants were this decisive at Cynoscephele.
I have always read it was the Roman Allied Cavalry that turned the battle in favor of the Roman Army, this day.
@@Knowledgia By "more to come", were you referring to the videos or your *knowledge* about one liners.
Keep *marching!* :)
"Which side are you supporting?"
Mercenaries from Crete: "Yes."
Haha, pretty much!
more like SHOW ME DA MONEYYYY
"Archers of Crete!!!"
Lmao I wish that greeks would have been more united as a one there was even greek mercenaries fighting for darius when alexander invaded persia and also before all that when greece was Invaded thebans thessalians and macedonians fought with the persians ☹☹☹
@@zeus0710 well then build a time machine to change history o wait you can't
But I'm trying to so I can save the roman empire
Wow, the music and narration really makes it so that you could feel the tension in the air. As always, you can expect top quality content from HistoryMarche and Knowledgia!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Working with Knowledgia was awesome. We have plans for more videos :)
@@HistoryMarche Hi. Please make videos on Anglo Mysore wars.
Imagine being that unamed tribune, driving all your army to a decisive victory.
i'm sure he ran for consul at some point after that
There is a reason why Rome created those differenr rankings within the Legions. Giving them the freedom to dictate and act without a higher officer authority.
Gotta wonder why his parents didn't give him a name though
What a Chad.
He probably was a time traveler :p
They wanted to fight elsewhere but both scouting parties said "No, we will fight here!".
This has to be one of the few times where neither army was able to choose their ground before engaging.
Indeed. That's what makes this battle that much more interesting. Both armies had to wing it
Which is, in a way, a testament to the quality of the maniple system.
Many armies, without proper scouting, would "stumble" upon each other..and a battle would insue.
That's why Pickets and Scouts are always wise, to be stationed out.
@@HistoryMarche
Napoleon was the Master, of a Stumbling Into Encounter.
He just told his Commanders
to "MARCH TO THE SOUND OF THE GUNS!"
Hey Glen, I'm a Chapman as well - Nova Scotia, Canada!
I love how much the two generals are mirroring each other's actions.
the quality is better than kings and generals
map design and
battle animations look a lot more awesome
Honestly more than anything i prefer the narrator here than in Kings n Generals a 100 times over
@@jaepark3938 agreed for the longest time i though it was the channel creator lol for some reasonn
The quality is indeed better and most importantly without propaganda, unlike K&G. Soon they'll make videos of aliens and pawn shops the way they're going with their channel.
@@theodorosgkountoulidis2385 what do you mean by K&G and propaganda?
This collab was pretty lit ngl
A big fan of Knowledgia's channel, happy to see them collaborate with one of my all time favorite TH-camrs, HistoryMarche!!
Truly amazed by the details of each historical wars tactics you’ve done. I know how hard it is to do all this kind of videos and would like to thank you for everything. I’ve been watching your channel long before Mo7at mentioned you and I was very glad that he did cause you deserve it. Would love to see more of Khaled ibn alwaled wars.
Truly your channel is a treasure and we wish you all the best Vlad.
Thank you very much! Yes, Mo7at is very kind to have recommended my channel. Big thanks to him! I will do the Battle of Badr in May and the Battle of Uhud in June
great stuff always!
Great seeig you do collabs. They're a good way to grow your channel, great vid as always 🔥🔥🔥
Always we see quality content made by HistoryMarche ...one of my favourites YT channels ...
Thanks D! Love to see you here. Check out part 1 as well on Knowledgia's channel.
This was an excellent collaboration video. When one hears of Rome most wouldn't think that they used War Elephants in any battles. But they did in this one. And probably to good effect. I love hearing about this battle.

"He personally joined the attack."
>Wilhemius dies.
Once again another truly beautiful video. The maps, weather effects etc are amazing.
Thank you very much!
NIce job guys! As always.
Great video! I really appreciate the narration of HistoryMarche videos. Calm, fitting rhythm and good pronunciation. And especially pauses in the narration. Perfectly accompanying the visualizations and not trying to be the centerpiece.
(The differences in narration between Part 1 of Knowlegia and Part 2 here are striking.)
strategy is smart on behalf of both channels, talking about the same event, they kinda force u to switch channel and see the others video, again smart, but it s frustrating as in your head u know they talk about the same historic event but smthing missing, the narrator , the graphics also binds the 2 episodes together
Thanks for the awesome videos!
A new Historymarche video always brings a smile to my face. You guys are the best
Another master piece
12.46 its sad that folks like that tribune basically turned the tide of a fight but are left unknown.
It's a great feeling to be loved.
It's also a great feeling when people wish they knew your name, like this Tribune here.
Been waiting for this video!
Great job, keep going
I am very excited for the continuation of the second punic war. Much respect to your efforts !
Thank you for what you provide on this channel. I am a history student, and because of you I regained my memory in history. Continue and we support you. I wish you a happy day and a happy year.
Thank you sir.
Thank you for those videos and your hard work. This channel is becoming one of my favorites.
Thank you for this beautiful channel and thank you for adding the translation, I enjoyed it very much.
very good content!!
It is one of the best channels on YT. Everything is clearly shown and told. Well done. I only have one suggestion. You should put scales in meters in one corner of the screen to be able to calculate distances on the maps. It is very useful
I can't even comprehend the great distances these ancient peoples had to travel, especially on foot.....mind boggling.
Awesome narration for this series
I have been waiting for this! Swell!
It is surprising that Philip was having serious problems with supplies while fighting on his own territory while the Romans, having half of Greece and the Adriatic sea between them and their homeland, were having no such problems (or at least, their problems with supplies must not have been as grave as those of Philip).
Just came from Knowledgia! Never heard of your channel before but I like it! Keep up the great work!
Welcome aboard!
thank you for giving us quality content along with Knowledgia
Keep up the good work
I can't help but feel bad for Phillip V. He was dealt a bad hand yet he played his cards so well and determinedly, never willing to give up without a fight.
Too bad great leaders like him and Hannibal, who'd be celebrated in an alternate universe without Rome, are now remembered for their failures instead.
Agreed. But I think he could've had the foresight to "see it coming". Counting on flimsy treaties with Antiochus was error 1. I also think he underestimated Rome a tad bit. They just smashed Carthage and were on the up and up. A more tactful approach could've bought him time to better position himself against Rome.
@@HistoryMarche Philip should have destroyed the Roman forces in Epirus when he had the chance and then send part of his forces to the Greek cities to seize their ships. Once that is done he can use the navy to gain dominance over the Ionian Sea and prevent any other Roman attack.
@@HistoryMarche there's very little evidence for any treaty with antiochus. given that 1)it only comes from polybius who was very pro-roman and pro-achaean and 2)Antiochus did not help philip at all when philip invaded caria, at best it was a non aggression pact and in fact Antiochus tried to take as much of philip's lands in anatolia and thrace when news of philip's defeat were known to him
Philip's biggest mistakes were1) not completely crippling the aetolians during the social war, 2) not requiring the achaean league to provide troops to his army and 3)not defending epirus adequately
Rome was like the America of that time
Cynoscephalae is a perfect example for several concepts:
- scouting, forraging or strategic hill capturing drawing both sides in a escalating battle
- formed up Phalanxes from the front being almost impossible to beat. Unless you are another Phalanx, at best you can hope to hold your line
- Phalanxes that have not formed up, being easily defeated by a charge
- Phalanxes being also easily defeated by a flank or rear charge
The average Hoplite is a subpar spearman, with a really good formation. But without the formation, they are mostly toast.
As I understand it, the Romans used to use the Phalanx. It failed against the Italian Hilltribes, so they copied the maniple system from said hilltribes. And promtly used it to defeat phalanxes a few centuries later.
@@fabebn They got a longer pike and a smaler shield. While the range is useful to fight other phalanxes and enemies on the front, it has all the same weaknesses. Or if anything, it has them magnified.
All ancient armies used a phalanx. It came to generally mean "formation" or "infantry formation." There isn't a single type of formation. It's really up to the commander and how many soldiers he has to work with.
Im not sure there's any universal advantage of either type of formation in this battle that one side had over the other. In the end, it comes down to the skill of the commander, the experience and valor of the soldiers, and a whole lot of luck.
Many of the battles between the Macedonians and Romans were very close, and the Romans had been defeated by phalanxes many times, such as Hannibal's many victories over the Romans during the 2nd Punic War, and the Cimbri & Teutonis around 100bc.
Awesome as always
Thank you so much 😀 Make sure to check out Part 1 too, on Knowledgia's channel
Nice historical video from excellent historic channel thanks for sending was clear explaining of events and weather difficulties behind mobilising ,campaigning &attacking
Can't wait to watch Battle of Metaurus River when you upload it. Strangely not many videos covering that battle on YT. One of the most decisive battle in Second Punic War, after that Hannibal couldn't threatened Rome in its home turf...

Knowledgia and HistoryMarche to the rescue! :)
Yeah here's my favorite channel, best history channel. Keep it up! you guys got better and better, really haha
Do you know about Kings and Generals? I’m not saying it’s better but it’s just another really great TH-cam channel about history and definitely worth checking out if you like this channel
@@YeeeeGreg yes, i knew King and Generalss channel before Historymarche, that's good channel too and yes we can't easily say which one is the best cause their style are different
You're doing a great job, I'm excited about the Badr Battle video

My pleasure 😊
The content of this channel is great, and it seems that you are working hard to create this beautiful content 🧡
Thank you so much! I will do the Battle of Badr in May and the Battle of Uhud in June
You really should do a series from the beginning of Rome getting to power till the end of the empire. Great content you make
you realize you're asking for like 900 years of history. That is, if you're "beginnings of Rome " is refered to the republic. With their accuracy that means like 900 videos, to say the least.I'm up for it :)
@@johnyd.4480 Don’t forget another 1000 years of the Eastern Empire brother. That’s 2200+ years of fantastic history & stories :)
