First & Second Punic Wars

Interesting Tid-bits (do not copy) Rome never forgave Carthage or Hannibal for nearly defeating them. In 149 BC, Rome made an impossible demand of Carthage, telling them to abandon their city and move inland. Carthage refused and Rome attacked the city, destroying it. Fourteen years after the end of the Second Punic War, Rome demanded that Carthage hand over Hannibal. Carthage refused, and Hannibal went into voluntary exile. He was pursued by the Romans until he drank poison and died in 183 BC at the age of 64.

Second Punic Wars: The Story DON’T COPY THIS… The Second Punic War between Carthage and Rome was ignited by the dispute over the hegemony of Saguntum, a Hellenized Iberian coastal city with diplomatic contacts with Rome. After great tension within the city government culminating in the assassination of the supporters of Carthage, Hannibal laid siege to the city of Saguntum in 219 BC. The city called for Roman aid, but the pleas fell on deaf ears. Following a prolonged siege and a bloody struggle in which Hannibal himself was wounded and the army practically destroyed, the Carthaginians finally took control of the city. Many of the Saguntians chose to commit suicide rather than face the subjugation by the Carthaginians.
