About this listen

This episode I discuss the allies of both Rome and Carthage and why some would choose which side to be on. Rome’sallies in Italy were not always loyal to it. Either because of discontent in these cities or because of fear of Hannibal some places turned over to Hannibal’s side. At the same time, the Romans sent a contingent of men to pacify Cisalpine Gaul. Listen to find out what happens because of it.
