Many soldiers of Rome and her allies in Italy lost their farms and migrated to the city of Rome to eke out a living. They lost their farms because prolonged military service led to their neglect or because they had been ravaged during the war. Rich landowners took advantage of their destitution to buy their lands cheaply.

Most of Carthage's solders were not from Carthage (which was in Tunisia). They were from Spain, northern Italy and Libya. After the war they went back to their lands. Algerian cavalrymen who had been Carthage's allies and had fought with her switched their alliance to Rome.
