We continue our series on the Forgotten Wars of Roman history. In this episode we launch ourselves into the Jugurthine War which would prove to be Rome's most corrupt war.

The video begins with a quick recap on Numidian history and its entanglement with Rome. This would occur over the course of the Punic Wars with Carthage where Numidian Cavalry clashed repeatedly with the legions. Famously the Numidians would seal the doom of the Roman legions at the Battle of Cannae but would ultimately turn on Carthage at the Battle of Zama. In the aftermath of the Second Punic War, King Massinissa would lead a united Kingdom of Numidia as a staunch ally of Rome. His son would carry on this tradition. However when the question of who was to suceed him was posed, the answer would precipitate an unravelling of the entire status quo. Here Jugurtha would rise to claim the throne and challenge Rome itself.
