the leader of Carthage during the 2nd punic war was Hannibal and he was considered one of the best because of his cleverness!!


What were the outcomes of the 2nd and 3rd Punic wars?

Rome and its allies defeated Carthage. After the Second war, Rome imposed an annual financial penalty designed to cripple Carthage for 50 years. The resilient Carthaginians paid it off in ten years. So after defeating Carthage in the Third Punic War, Rome went for a 'Final Solution' selling the Carthaginians into slavery to get rid of their contest for superiority in the Western Mediterranean.


What were some results of the punic wars?

The Result of the 1st Punic War was that Carthage lost Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica to Rome. The Result of the 2nd Punic War was that Carthage was greatly weakened. She lost her territories in Spain to Rome. Spain had been the kingpin of Carthage's war effort. She had supplied most of Carthage's infantrymen and was the city's main source of wealth with her silver mines and other resources. The western Numidians who had been allies of Carthage's and the main suppliers of her cavalrymen switched their allegiance to Rome when Carthage lost Spain. Under the peace treaty Carthage was demilitarised. She also had to pay an annual war indemnity for 50 years. In the 3rd Punic war Carthage was destroyed and 50,000 Carhtaginians were sold as slaves. Carthage's remaining territory was annexed by Rome as the province of Africa. Romans and Italic allies settled in the countryside. Africa (or better, Tunisia) became a main supplier of grain for Rome as she had the most productive agricultural soil under Rome's possession. Utica (which had allied with Rome) was turned into the most important city in the region. When Utica's port silted, Carthage was rebuild as a Roman city and become the 4rth or 5th largest city in the empire with a population of 300-500,000. Rome also took over Carthage's cities in Mauritania (Morocco).
