The Battle of Cannae, fought in 216 BC during the Second Punic War, is one of the most devastating military defeats in history. In this episode, we examine how Hannibal Barca lured a vastly larger Roman army into a deadly trap, using flawless coordination and manoeuvre to encircle and annihilate it. It’s a battle still studied in military academies, mostly as a warning.
