August 2, 216 B.C., The Battle of Cannae, Second Punic Wars
The great victory of Hannibal over the Romans in the
Second Punic War.
Of course this eventually led to the
Third Punic War
and the complete destruction of Carthage.
Dan Carlin's Punic Nightmares podcasts describing these events are quite well done.
