In this series we will explore the history of Rome's first war in the east. Coming off the heels of it's great victory against Carthage in the west, Rome was now set to take on the reigning champion of the east in the form of the Seleucid Empire. What followed would be a sprawling war which initially began in the lands of Greece. Here the Romans fought across the landscapes of Sparta and Thermopylae before eventually spilling out into Anatolia.

In this 3D history documentary we bring to life the True Size of a Spartan Army to unlock the secrets of its strength. The documentary begins with a summary of the basic soldiers which made up the Spartan Army. We then review the organizational hierarchy of the Spartan Army from the 36 man Enomotia to the Morai. We then simulate the Spartan Army in camp, on the march, and in battle order.
