Hannibal. Carthage. Rome. Hamilcar Barca. Second Punic War. Battle of Saguntum. Battle of Lake Trasimene. Battle of Canae. Battle of Zama. Scipio. Quintus Fabius. Fabian. Delay. George Washington the "American Fabius." Elephants. Unladen African elephants. Laden African elephants. Donner and Blitzen. Thunder and lightning. Crepes. Pancakes. Alps. Really? Over the Alps? Huh. Well, that won't end well. Or will it? (dum, dum, dum). Dictator. Altar. You win battles, but you don't know how to use your victories. Cartagena. Hasrubal. It's only important if it hurts you. You'll only complain when YOUR liberty is taken, ignoring it when its somebody else's. #hannibal #hannibalbarca #secondpunicwar #punicwars #elephants #alps #fabius #fabiantactic #battleofcanae #battleoflaketrasimene #battleofzama #battleofsarguntum #scipio #livy #polybius #romanhistory #historyofcarthage #truehistory #history #tyranny #ancienthistory #rome #ancientrome #worldhistory #hamilcarbarca #resistance #principiisobsta #latin Sources: Livy, History of Rome Polybius, Histories
