6000 10000 facts

While investigating facts about 6000 10000, I found out little known, but curios details like:

In 1917, Mussolini got his start in politics with the help of a £100 weekly wage from MI5 (the equivalent of £6000 - $10000 today), to keep anti-war protestors at home and publish pro-war propaganda. Fascism may thus never have taken off without sponsorship from MI5.

In 216BC, Carthage fought the Roman Republic in The Battle of Cannae. Despite being outnumbered 86,400 to 50,000, the Carthage side (led by Hannibal) won a decisive victory. They took ~6000 casualties, while the Roman Republic lost 53,500-75000 infantry, 2700 cavalry and a further 10000 captured
