After Cannae, Capua, the second city of Italy, defected to Carthage—a decision that nearly broke Rome's alliance system. This episode explores the political and social dynamics inside Capua: the pro-Carthaginian faction led by Pacuvius Calavius, the debates in the Campanian senate, and the economic ties that made Capua a prize worth winning for Hannibal. We also look at how Rome's response—siege, starvation, and harsh punishment—shaped the rest of the war. Lucas and Luna discuss the motives of the Capuan elite, the role of the Campanian cavalry, and the strategic miscalculations that turned Capua from Hannibal's greatest ally into a cautionary tale. Drawing on Polybius, Livy, and modern scholarship, this is the story of a city's choice and its devastating consequences. #Hannibal #Capua #SecondPunicWar #Campania #Carthage #Rome #Polybius #Livy #PacuviusCalavius #Cannae #CampanianRevolt #SiegeOfCapua #RomanAllies #MagnaGraecia #AncientHistory #MilitaryHistory #FexingoHistory #History Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
