The Romans learned a lot from the Celts in terms of warfare, such as adopting their shields, chainmail and helmets. It also appears that the Celts failed to learn from Roman warfare. Even as the Celts gradually adapted some Roman political features by creating their own republics. They also got a taste for Roman wine and that tradition lives on today, as Frenchmen are the largest wine consumers per capita in the world. But the Celts lacked discipline, coordination, a navy, proper operational planning (often leading to their armies getting encircled in the Italian peninsula). Perhaps worst of all, they lacked a good logistical base and relied on loot and plunder as their armies advanced. If some of their larger tribes had developed really large trade centers, they could have both built more lasting professional armies but more importantly, have less of a need to send so many of their young men as plundering warriors to the Mediterranean lands. It almost seems as they sometimes used invasions of Rome as a way to deal with overpopulation.

[@thabomuso6254]

@Jimbo Jones the Celts were also absolutely excellent smiths. During most of the time period of the Roman republic, I would say that they on average had more skilled warriors compared to the Romans on an individual basis. Most Roman generals until the imperial era were also quite poor. What they lacked were large centrally organized states and therefore large organized armies in which all soldiers fought together in their specific role but for a common objective. The Celts were very good warriors while the Romans were good soldiers. And still they suffered terribly against the Carthaginians. The combination of a mostly drafted army together with a decent military technology and ability to truly learn from their mistakes made the Romans prevail in the end.

[@thabomuso6254]

@@rimacalid6557 the French of today certainly also have to do with the Celts. The French are essentially a mixture of Celtic, Germanic and Latin peoples. I don't know if you have been to and travelled around France or studied the French language, but if you do, you will notice that there is a clear regional pattern in their appearances. For instance, you will find more taller and blond people in the north (the main center of germanic settlement), more people that are shorter, darker and often with black curly hair in Provence (the main area of Roman settlement), as well as many red haired persons particularly in the western regions and particularly in Britanny/Bretagne (the main area of surviving Celtic communities). Then you of course have the Basques in the Southwest of France. Even the French dialects/patois are related to the various ethnic origins of the French people. for instance, in Provence they say "si" instead of the standard French "oui", when they say "yes". To be more precise, the Celts learned how to drink wine from the Romans and that cultural tradition was adopted by Germanic settlers.

[@marcob1729]

Rome could have arguably done the same thing that they did in the second Punic War. When Hannibal completely depleted his homeland of troops, he should have been mentally accepting the fact that the Romans could decide to strike

[@neutronalchemist3241]

Hannibal had problems with the Gauls on his way to the Alps (his brother's Hasdrubal's trip through southern France had been much faster for that reason. At that point the Gauls considered the Barcids to be allies). Without Telamon he would have had problems after the Alps too.

Can you please one day make a documentary on the punic wars. There is just so much about it

[@neutronalchemist3241]

Gaesatae commander: "Don't worry Boiis. We know how to deal with those 'Romans' that you fear so much. We prepared them a surprise they'll never forget!" Boiis: "Wow! What is it? A new tactic? New weapons?" Gaesatae commander: "We'll go in battle butt-naked!" Boiis, facepalming: "That's not going to end well..."

I really like this channel, but could you please do series in chronological order instead of putting weeks/months between episodes? I often have no clue what happened in previous episodes..

[@stepanpytlik4021]

Are you planning on covering the Punic Wars someday?

[@zinekaizerzen-pokemonunite1390]

Just watch historymarche!

[@b3ygghsas]

Or historia civilis, btw historia civilis has an amazing and complete julius caesar playlist

[@frannyfranfrancis]

So much to learn! I was assuming this was going to be about British and Roman's fight

[@joshuaperry7199]

Im glad that yhe roman leader was humble enough to acknowledge his enemies bravery. You don't see that much in roman history when going up a against 'barbatians'.

Could you make a video about the gauls in the 2nd punic war please.I love your stuff

[@gunsroses6289]

[@redshirt1917]

[@donaldpetersen2382]

Me: Boy I realy could use a new battle tactics video to inspire my new campaign in Rome 2 Kings and Generals: Say no more fam

[@ramyarkohzadi3336]

Is it an introduction for second punic war and Hannibal ingenuity?🧐🧐

[@DailyDipo]

You may be outsmarted me but i outsmarted your outsmarting

[@ziraka.5716]

Keep up the work lads. Can we get a Gutian empire, Land of Karda or Carduchi people history video?

[@thorshammer7883]

It's nice to see a history channel that still uses BC instead of BCE.

[@larslundandersen7722]

Potato Potato, both things means the same in essence. The only reason to complain about the use of one or the other is because you are purposefully trying to find something to be contrarian about

[@thorshammer7883]

@@larslundandersen7722 They aren't really the same if you see the meanings. I prefer BC because it came first and has been used for centuries so I don't see any reason to change it to BCE.

[@LuisBrito-ly1ko]

@@thorshammer7883 BCE -> Before Current Era BC -> Before Christ AD -> Anno Domini CE -> Current Era They both share the birth of Christ as Year 0. So, they really mean the same thing in essence. But I respect your preference.

[@sohanmufti6000]

Does Kings and Generals have a series on the Punic wars? I can't seem to find it.

[@apostolispouliakis7401]

Roman content is best content

[@hunterbrown5866]

Can I be the guy that asks what game some of these battle scenes are being generated on? It looks rad and I want to try.

[@hornbadger2853]
