[00:00:08]But from the south, a powerful alliance of African armies was rising. Led by Hannibal and fierce Nubian warriors, [music] thousands of soldiers crossed the sea with massive war elephants and deadly new tactics Rome had [music] never seen before.

[00:00:40]For the first time in history, Rome had fallen.

[00:00:43]African banners [music] rose above the Senate as a new African empire spread across Europe. And today, [music] the world might speak African languages instead of Latin.
