The Battle of Zama

For over fifteen years, one of history's greatest military commanders had terrorized the Roman Republic, destroying entire armies and bringing Rome to the brink of defeat. Yet despite his extraordinary victories, he could not win the war. Eventually, a young Roman general devised a strategy that would force him to fight one final decisive battle on his own territory. The outcome would forever change the balance of power in the ancient world.
