The battle of Salamis was not fought by the Roman Republic and the Parthian Empire but by the Athenian and the Persian fleets. At this time Rome existed but it only controlled parts of Italy while it did not have a fleet. And while we are at it. Hannibal of Carthage was not a king. Carthage was led by an aristocracy

As professional and scholar in ancient classis battles, several mistakes are allready corrected of previous readers. I have taken in the Greek battlefields thousands of travelers/specialists (tourtripgreece gr) . The most important battles considering the size of armed forces and strategic significance (for the Greek civilization thus its evolution: "western civilization".

The Battle of Thermopylae was between SEVEN THOUSAND allied Greeks that included Spartans, Thespians, and Thebens (although led by Sparta) and between 120,000-300,000 Persians. NOT 300 Spartans only. That number is myth-making that has been perpetrated throughout history and ignores all the non-Spartan Greeks who participated. Although the very last piece of the battle did involve mostly only Spartans on the allied Greek side. Also this was the bronze age and iron and steel were NOT the metal making the clashing sounds at this battle. The only major metal making sounds at this battle was bronze. Decent video but lots of inaccuracies like these two are littered throughout this video.
Actually a Greek citizen by the name of Ephialtes betrayed the Greek army and cause most of the 7000 to retreat leaving behind the 300 Spartans and a number of other helots and Boeotians so technically there were still 300 Spartans in the end plus the other warriors
I don't believe those estimates of army sizes; how could 300,000 Persians carry all the food necessary to keep them sustained on the march for so long; and don't talk about pillaging local farms.
300 spartans and 700 thespians were left at the end to make a heroic stand and die in the battlefield at the end. after they heard that they were betrayed by efialtesthey sended the entirety of the army back home to prepare for the next battles.
The last piece of Thermopylae did not involve mostly Spartans on the Greek side. The remnants of the 300 Spartans indeed did fight but 700 Thespians were there as well.
Nero lived several hundred years after Hannibal. The name of the roman general (of the republic) at that battle would have probably been Skipio Africanus (sp?).
Marcus Livius was one of the Roman consuls leading the army, and the other consul was Gaius Claudius. Nero. So it was a Nero, but not the emporer Nero.
The Battle of Salamis was fought by The Roman Republic?? Against the Persians-- Try the Greeks V The Persians. After the intro the speaker recovers this gaffe
Isn't it sad that the meaning of English words are not honourably protected for posterity.. I refer to the unimaginative misuse of the word "decimate".. It seems to sum up modern day responsibility 😢
Hannibal and Nero were separated by hundreds of years. Scipio Africanus was the Roman general who ultimately defeated Hannibal after several initial victories by Hannibal

"king Hannibal of Carthage " ?? when these programs make rookie mistakes like this it makes one wonder how much of their material needs to be fact checked ?
The Battle of Thermopylae wasn't fought by 300 Spartans vs the Persians. The Greeks were led by 300 Spartans... but the Greeks had 7.000+ men there who each took turns on the front lines to let those that had just fought rest.
This is so poorly constructed with wrong countries, names, no est. of army sizes, I hope those unfamiliar with theses battles, will look them up on another channel.
It was a Roman consul named Gaius Claudius Nero that was one of the consuls leading the Roman army at Metaurus. The other consul was also in the battle, Marcus Livius. So it was a Nero, but definitely not the emporer Nero. Being a Claudia he was an ancestor of the emporers Tiberius, Caligula, Claudius, and Nero. Augustus married Livia and founded the Julio-Claudian dynasty that ended when Nero committed suicide.
@@Treeman-fp9em you are correct but is that guys defense the narrator defiantly said “the infamous Emperor Nero”. Maybe you eluded to that in your comment but the op was wrong
Sorry - A Roman Emperor, and Nero to boot, fighting Hannibal during the time of the Roman republic! Please Goggle Nero. Plus other mistakes highlighted in comments below. I've had enough of this drivel.
The battle of Metaurus was indeed fought between Rome and Carthage. But the "Romans were led by notorious emperor NERO" is nothing but a fallacy - wrong time, wrong person. Who wrote this???
You need to do some serious fact checking. You say the battle of salamis included the Roman republic then go on to talk about it being between Greeks and Persians. You later say Nero lead an army against hasdrubal Barca but he existed before the Roman Empire. Didn’t bother watching the rest
Okay, who the hell did the research for this? This video's either a troll or someone was smoking something as they "researched it. It was the Greeks -- not the Romans -- who fought against the Persians at Salamis; Nero was an Emperor who reigned from 54CE until 68CE...NOT 202 BCE when the Second Punic War occurred... I stopped after that one...too painful to listen to..
I'd suggest moving on to another video, one that doesn't tell you that emperor Nero fought the Carthaginians, or refers to Hannibal as 'King Hannibal of Carthage'. Edit: As well as several other howlers pointed out by others in the comments.
They maked movie 300 Battle By Termopylas and 300 Battle on Salamis and i hoped they someday make movie about 300 Battle on Platajas! :-( But they newer did.....
Actually "Firebombing" in modern history was used by the Allies at the end of WW2 in Europe, Dresden and another German city, over 150000 German civilians were wiped out, they were only weeks away from complete surrender. America was initially opposed to the idea urged by a vengeful Churchill. America joined and took the same idea to the Pacific Conflict with Tokyo its primary target and ultimately the dropping of Nuclear Bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
Battle of Salamis was NOT Roman Republic versus Parthia!!!( I have listen few times over just to make sure I am not imagining things). It was Greek coalision versus Mediocre Persian Empire
I guess historical accuracy was not a priority in the making of this video. Did the writers actually attend school or is this a home schooling failure. Wow I didn't know that Nero fought Carthage.
Battle of Salamis was between the Athenian fleet and the Persian Empire. A year ago, this was brought up to correct. Yet, it has not been edited to correct this blatant historical error.
Several of these battles can be classified as skirmishes compare with some of the wars in China. By 220 BC era there was already wars that involved over a million soldiers on all sides. Soldiers were killed just as efficiently, all without firearms or gun powder.
Dude do some quality control or research, you have good videos and all that but the mistakes are crazy, salamis was Greek Persian not Roman Parthian, metaurus was fought during the republic sooo no emperor. Even if it was a Nero it wasn’t THE Nero. And Thermopylae was like 7000 Greeks not just 300. At this point like every knows that
Yup... the Greek force was 300 Spartans, but included roughly 7,000 Thespians from the city state of Thespia. The Thespians conformed to Spartan tactics and leadership, and had the force not been overwhelmed by forces both in front of and behind them, they would have easily held the pass until the other Greek city states could get their acts together.
People already found out lots of mistakes. I was going to watch stupid video, but reading transcript is faster. 11:28 said Zhao defeated attacked Qin. Go research Wikipedia n other RUclips video.

People believed it was inflated. We don't have enough evidence to support either way. However, casualty was a lot for Zhao that Zhao could no longer recover. Qin suffered a lot that after failed to destroy Zhao, Qin could not bring such huge battle 20 years later.
I knew the majority of the facts. History is not one of my best subjects. My favorites in modern times are Gladiator with Russell Crowe and Joaquin Phoenix. Another is 300 with Gerard Butler playing Leonidas. Although they had painted on abs. If you want to watch a hilarious movie it's called Meet the Spartans. I also loved the Starz series Spartacus. Those were real muscles. I adored Andy Whitfield who played Spartacus. He died due to Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. He was replaced by Liam McIntyre. I grew to love him too. Alexander the Great was phenomenal.
