Carthage is quite an underated empire lol
Because they got bodied by Rome three times.
It wasn't an empire, it was an republic
@@adelbertbellgika9890 r/bruv
@@adelbertbellgika9890 you serious 😳?
@@benedictjajo Technically, he is correct. Carthage was not ruled by an emperor. But it's also an empire because of its size and power.
I'm sure the two will get along just fine.
Caeterem, censeo Cartaginem delendam esse
This is basically the first few chapters of Adrian Goldworthy’s The Fall of Carthage, in condensed and animated form. And I whole heartedly approve.
In fact I’m kinda getting Brain4Breakfast vibes, as he started out adapting portions of Peter Zeihan’s the Accidental Superpower. RIp b4b.
Now there's a name I haven't thought about in a while. Rip B4B :(
Eric Flint's Alexander Inheritance
Nothing better than getting thought history when it's also entertaining
Every empire that used human sacrifices were defeated by powers that didnt. Some kind of cosmic justice does exist.
Actually, gladiator battles were technically human sacrifices seeing as they started as official religious rites to honor the dead.
@@spectrum1140 So nations who was still doing human sacrifices got conquered by nations that had developed ways to fulfil the same role at less cost to society (i.e. animals, trained fighters who didn't actually kill most of the time, or transubstantiation)?
@@spectrum1140 no. Heretic.
They were sacrificing Jews. Good Carthage.
@@liviuganea4108 you're 80 years late my dude, that cringe shit kinda passed with the times
No mention of Pyrrhus here? Disappointed ngl. Expected the guy who had fought both guys and brought them inevitably close to the Punic Wars. Not to mention the wild character he was
Pyrrhus and the Pyrrhic War will be the subject of the next video on the series. This one is merely an introduction to the two major players.
@@spectrum1140 ah I see fair point then also great video regardless and greetins from the homeland! Need to convert the world to Portuguese eventually so we can do it in our language 😂👍👌🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹🇵🇹
Did you not watch the last seconds of the video?
@@PeliSotilas I thought we were gonna go over the entire prelude of the Punic Wars which included the Pyrrhic Wars in Italy and Sicily but thanks for the heads up.
I'm liking this longer-form video from you. Really lets you show us what you know. Not that I dislike the lists, it's just that I prefer this kind of thing. Reminds me of a Historia Civilis video, which is fantastic. TH-cam needs more Historia Civilisi.
Perfect timing, was just starting to go into a Rome craze
I’m glad i’m not the only person suffering from this wave of roman craze
@Bread Boi 3 months later and my roman craze is still raging
You know, Carthage was kinda cool I guess...
*Carthago delenda est* btw :)
Except their religion. It was seriously not cool.
@@spectrum1140 If you are referring to the human sacrifices aspect of the Punic Religion, it may actually not have occurred (surprisingly). All primary and secondary sources for this claim have biblical or greco-roman providence; both hostile to the idea of a romanticised Carthage. Other evidence is archeaological: infant bones found in many urns within Punic 'temples', presumed to be offerings. None of this directly points to the practice of human sacrifice but they do help convey the difficulty in finding truths about such old, polytheist beliefs.
You left us with a cliffhanger. I spent a good hour looking for a watchable video on Pyrrhus of Epirus without luck. I am hoping there will be a sequel from you! Thanks for great videos that teach without appearing to.
I was thinking of making a series on the Punic wars, but it looks like I can just recommend you for that. I can’t wait for the next installment!
In a strategy video game Rome: Total War with Extended Greek Mod I have played quite often the Carthaginian Faction. It's very interesting Faction to play with Libyan Spearmen, Numidian Cavalry, Iberian Infantry, War Elephants, etc. The Imperial campaign starts in 280 BC when Pyrrhos of Epeiros had a strong army in southern Italy.
Otherwise I have read a lot about ancient history too. Besides Greeks and Romans, Phoenicians and Carthagians have always been a very interesting people. A Roman Emperor Septimius Severus (145-211) had both Punic and Italian ancestry.
I'm liking this Historia Civilis-esque style a lot. Looking forward to the next part of the series
Possibly the best overview of the Roman military I've seen on youtube, and tucked away inside an already outstanding video.
Nice to see Imperator Spectrum well
Love your videos and like to see your channel grow
anyway next episode is the life and times of Pyrrhus of Epirus i guess
Imagine if Carthage won the Punic Wars, the world would surely be different and instead of Rome being the dominant power of the mediterranean, it would instead be Carthage.
Also, these wars used a large amount of not only resources but humans aswell, elephants were also used heavily during this conflict (by Carthage, of course) among other things like ships, materials like stone and more.
You remind of Historia Civilis
They both romeaboos
It's such a treat when you upload roman videos
Man, I was hoping for him to start smth like this and this video is honestly really good
Pretty cool stuff! As someone who lives about 10 miles away from the anciant ruins of carthage , i'm very interested in continuing the story and catching up what i missed during school , the quality is good because the supposedly boring episode didn't bore me at all , quite the opposite in fact , keep it up
Pog upload timing
This video felt too short, ended too soon!! Waiting for the video on the great Pyrrhus of Epirus, a military genius and total badass. Keep up the great work Spectrum.
Moreover I am of the opinion that Carthage should be destroyed.
Luv u spectrum I’ll be waiting on ur next upload bro 😎
This is a very good video. Deserves more likes
Second favourite history channel after oversimplified super close tho
hahahaha good to see Pyrrhus that lovely battle loving party man bringing rivals together
Keep up the videos!!
Hannibal getting shit on by the Numidian cavalry later on is such a troll
Dope video
What is that outro music? It's so catchy!
Kevin MacLeod - Half Mystery
I like that you used Rome 2 flags and army's
i like your voice, its nice
I keep forgetting how weird borders are
AND HES POSTED AGAIN!!!1!1!1
Damn. Imagine thinking night shift is bad knowing that in ancient Rome if you fall asleep during guard duties you are done for good
Indeed
I would love to know about the Syracusans and other states involving the war.
Keep it up
The greatest war till the 30 years war
Looking at your helmet, I can not help think you are a little bias! LOL
Next time: SPROOOOT
Still waiting for a follow up :(
Largest conflict until modern history? Laughs in Chinese civil wars. Punic Wars were significant but this video massively overstates it.
LONG LIVE WEED
What if a Time-traveler Industrialize every nation at the start of the Punic Wars?
Stickman Carthage vs Roman Bird
I like your video. I’m often disappointed that the Punic wars are a bit sensationalized and the contrast between Carthage and Rome is exaggerated for this purpose. It’s a good story; the vastly different empires fighting for the fate of the western mediterranean. But your video is more truthful in that it shows how similar they actually were. I think everyone can see how both belong to a broader mediterranen culture group and have a lot in common, from the ascendency of so called ‚new man‘ to their very similar governments. You do find time to point out the differences where they matter though.
Obviously there’s a lot of other things that are great about this video, but i wanted to thank you for avoiding this cliche in particular.
roma invicta intensifies
Plese make a video about pyrus, the guy was a damm badass
Rome : this town is not big enough for the two of us.
top
Can you do a polish rulers
Do Portuguese history, the true successor to Rome
Nah bro it’s syria, they’re the true successor to Rome 💀
5:10 I'm sorry but this is not accurate. In fact, over centuries of warfare, Carthage generally got the better of Syracuse unless Syracuse had help from the Eastern Greeks.
Historia civilis style me likie
