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.
