The reason why they didn’t use elephants often was because most of the elephants actually died in the alps, they were a great intimidation factor, but not very useful in practical combat in Italy.

Im not sure about this but apparently the "Dark ages" didnt really mean that Europe was going through a bad time, it actually had less conflicts compared the past. But it just kinda meant that not a lot of people were recording the history for this time period.

[@Gohka]

The way I always understood it was it was called the "dark ages" because we lost so much in the way of tech and forms of government. I mean we went from having water irrigation and elected officials when the Romans were around, then it all fell apart and we were sitting in our own excrement and living under the rule of despotic kings.

11:33 I don’t think siege engines are supposed to be used in field battle so their mobility is irrelevant that is if they even have any mobility at all. Catapult is also limited by it’s mechanism, therefore can not throw large enough rock to damage high medieval castles. The trebuchet is renowned for its ability to devastate walls, not it’s range. Usually the moment the sieging army finishes building their trebuchet, the castle or city surrender immediately.

[@kellynolen498]

reminds me of warwolf the largest trebuchet ever built it was. used against the Scottish in a Independence war (vs king of England) able to launch 135 kilograms (298 lb) boulders from distance of up to 200 metres (660 ft) they surendered before it was finished but continued anyway to damage the castle (to damage there prestige and military and make the people submit to him easier

When the French soldiers left to fight in the Franco-Prussian War in 1870, the Italians stormed Rome and took it. The pope considered himself prisoner and the "Roman Question" about the pope's temporal authority continued until the Lateran Treaty in 1929, signed under Mussolini, which created the micro-state of the Vatican.

I’m guessing the reason elephants were not common mounts is 1 because of higher food intake cost so they eat a lot of food 2 the are open and also slow allowing them to get hit by any thing ranged easily 3 because it might have been hard to tame them.

[@Viet_Nam_Ball]

Also Elephants don’t cause a lot of casualties. Most of the damage dealt is on the enemies morale. Against a well trained army that is used to fighting elephants, they don’t have much used.

You mean domesticate- The African Elephant was never the beast of burden that the Asian Subspecies were and are. Hannibal's crossing the Alps was a major feat of logistics for the day. Nevertheless, over the long term, he would lose the war, and Carthage was ground to dust. Rome built the first really professional standing army and at the time they were very very good at what they did.
