Hannibal was not from ancient Rome. He was a Carthaginian. He invaded Italy by crossing the Alps. The exact location of his crossing is not known. It was somewhere on the stretch of the Alss which is now between Italy and France, near the River Rhone
The Carthaginian general Hannibal Barca had to cross 2 mountain ranges on his overland route fom Hispania ( modern day Spain ) to Italy. In the spring of 218 B.C., he left his winter camp in north east Spain and crossed the mountains of the Pyrenees. After crossing the Rhone River, his army including the remaining war-elephants, reached the Alps by the autumn of that year. The crossing of the Alps mountain range was arguably the most difficult section of the journey. It is believed that the crossing of the Alps in wintery conditions reduced his Army to almost half the size that had entered Gaul. As many as 20,000 infantry soldiers were lost in the crossing, many of them to the cold.
The Rhone River is in Europe.
