Phoenicians spread like merchants all around the Mediterranean Sea since they emerged in Levante (Cyprus, Lebanon, Syria) in 3000BC. They only entered Egypt as traders around 1100BC. In its peak around 1250BC the Carthaginian Empire spread trade ports from Malta to Cyprus, Lebanon, Syria, Israel, Egypt, Lybia, Tunisia where they built Carthage, Argelia, Morocco and the South of the Iberian Peninsula. They're considered the first rukers of the Mediterranean Sea, before Greeks and Persians. But not 'cause they were Warriors. They were mostly Merchants and Sea People.

Spartacus came nearly 300 years after Hannibal. He was the first to truly weaken Rome

I feel like Hannibal's brain worked like this: he thought defeat began in the mind. So even though Carthage was clearly weaker after his father's war than Rome, he realized this created an opportunity. They were strong but overconfident. Victory can make you weak and Hannibal exploited this. He did what the Romans would never expect over and over. What he did not expect himself is that he could inflict appalling defeats on the Romans over and over and they would simply refuse to back down because they couldn't process the concept. This was a cultural difference he simply didn't understand; Carthage and most other ancient people's like the Greeks had a "yeah we lost we'll get 'em next time" attitude. To the Romans (of the period) it was total victory or destruction. Unacceptable even insane loses didn't phase them because they didn't even think of the concept of capitulation.

Yes the Romans were stubborn for not backing down but I believe that Romans were just more strategically minded than Hanibal was and more ruthless. They couldn't beat Carthage on the battlefield in Italy instead adopting the Fabian strategy of starving Hannibal of victory wearing his army in Italy down while attacking carthages own territories giving Rome a chance to raise new and train new legions that would be experienced veterans by the battle of zama. The Roman navy blockaded carthage trade and used diplomacy to keep Macedonian states out of the war. Hanibal was the stuborn one because he spent another decade in Italy growing weak after the battle of Cannae refusing to accept that he had failed to defeat Rome and failing to understand that Rome was ruthlessly refusing to fight his War.

Neither of them couldn't even think of attacking Rome or any other place lying in Italian peninsula. Their victories were undoubtedly brilliant, but unlike Hannibal or Brennus, Rome *never* faced any existential threat from them. So they simply couldn't be considered as Rome's worst "nightmare".

It's one of those questions right up there with Alexander as an old man gazing out at the ocean from the coast of Gaul. One of the problems is that NO unitary state has EVER survived comparible damage like that Hannible inflicted on the Republic. The Roman's had a huge population by the standards of the day. Combined with the best army on the planet. We also tend to forget that the city (which would have looked very different Greek influences a lot less) was a formidable fortress. I personally think more support in the second half of the 15 years he was in Italy COULD have changed the outcome. We read in the Roman's own accounts that they were struggling with manpower and food shortages. He was already the national boogeyman by this time, and they hesitated to close with his main body in southern Italy. More armies raised by carthage and (just for example) sent to the Spanish front - might have turned the tide.... Its a continuous position. Given the Romans strength. I also think it's similar to British and French recognition to the CSA. Perhaps the Federals still "win"....but its a "ragged end". Perhaps a partially changed outcome.

Look up amazigh people of north Africa like f.e kabyle people of Algeria. Also basic understanding who built Carthage and settled it in 8th century. Hannibal was descendants of settlers from today Lebanon that spoke semitic language. So bottom line there is no whitwashing here rather atempt from comment section to blackwash Hannibal for various reasons.

@@ag7dragonfly The original settlers of Carthage were Phoenicians, they came from the Mediterranean coast of what’s now Lebanon and Syria. In ancient tradition, the Phoenicians migrated to the area from “the Red Sea”at some point in the distant past - but the one written account is confusing because the author sometimes uses “Red Sea” the way we do and sometimes uses it to mean what we’d call the Persian Gulf. Since Phoenician was a Northwest Semitic language, closely related to Hebrew, it’s more likely that the Red Sea in question is ours. In any case they would resemble modern Lebanese, Syrians, Palestinians and Sephardi Jews: modern genetic studies use haplogroup J2 as a proxy for this rough grouping. It shows a noticeable concentration in the eastern Mediterranean, but there are also strong traces in coastal North Africa where the old Carthaginian empire was centered.

Hannibal may have been darker-skinned than a Roman, but he would not have been described as Ethiopian. Hannibal came from an area referred to as northern Africa, from a Carthaginian family. The Carthaginians were Phoenicians, which means that they would conventionally be described as a Semitic people. But whatever he is dead. So now he is a dust man.

To all the uneducated hypocrites claiming Hannibal was black... Hannibal was a Carthaginian of Phoenician descent. Carthage is located in current Tunisia, and Phoenicia is the current Levant, which comprises the countries of Syria, Lebanon, Israel and Palestine. Do a quick Google search for images of Tunisians and Levantines, and see if they are black. Sure, they aren't very white, but they are much closer to Europeans than Sub-Saharan Africans. But I won't base my entire argument on Google searches. I have history and geography to further prove my point. The Sahara desert is a huge, sparsely populated, nearly impassable geographical barrier, greatly hindering migration from North Africa to the rest of the continent. On the other hand, North Africa is connected to Southern Europe and the Middle East through the Mediterranean Sea: a large, easily navigable body of water. Ships were the fastest and cheapest method of transport for all of human history until the advent of planes, so what do you think is more likely to happen: Southern Europeans, Levantines and North Africans intermixing and acquiring a similar phenotype, or Sub-Saharans migrating all the way through the Sahara to get there? Besides, there were many advanced civilizations on the Mediterranean coast with the capabilities to provide transportation for such migrations and population intermixing. Sub-Saharan Africa, on the other hand, was mostly a primitive tribal society (note, *mostly*) until the middle ages and the European colonization, as a direct result of its isolation due to the Sahara. Of course, there were blacks in the Mediterranean region, coming in mostly from Egypt through the Nile or through Arabia from the Red Sea, but they were, and still are, a small minority in that area. Claiming Hannibal was black merely because he was African is a blatant display of ignorance and racism. Instead, why don't you take pride in *actual* black historical figures, like Mansa Musa, Mvemba a Nzinga, Shaka Zulu..?

Bro, I am also an African - from Kenya. We know that Hannibal was not black like Southern Saharan Africans, and we don’t feel the need to claim he was to make ourselves feel better (for what reason, I don’t know). The people who claim that Hannibal, the Egyptians, and other random historical figures were black tend to be African Americans, and they tend to be part of some weird cult known as the Black Hebrew Israelites. These people have basically been brainwashed. So don’t be offended by these clowns who try to claim your history as their own, they do not represent the vast majority of black people. In a way, it’s a testament to the grandness of the ancient Egyptian civilisation that so many have tried to claim it as their own (including the Nazis who claimed all the great ancient civilizations were started by ‘Aryans’). So many are still in awe at the achievements your ancient ancestors accomplished that some don’t even believe that ancient humans were capable of doing what they did - instead claiming ‘aliens’ are responsible. I once read a quote that said, “Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I am not yet completely sure about the universe.” Modern science tells us that the universe is limited, but no scientific evidence yet exists for the finite limitation of human stupidity. The black Hebrew Israelites, on the other hand, are merely one more example of the boundless nature of human ignorance. ✌🏿
