The Mercenary War (241–237 BC) stands as one of the most brutal conflicts in ancient history. Often overshadowed by the Punic Wars, this rebellion nearly destroyed Carthage from within. We examine how a salary dispute with unpaid veterans of the First Punic War escalated into a "Truceless War" defined by torture, cannibalism, and total annihilation. This video covers the rise of Hamilcar Barca, the strategic failures of Hanno the Great, and the geopolitical maneuvering of Rome that followed.
