Hannibal, one of the greatest generals in history, was a Carthaginian. Carthage is in what is now Tunisia & Algeria. By a roundabout route he invades what is now Italy, from Spain, through southern France & then crosses the Alps, elephants and all ! Great battles ensue, Lake Trasieme most notably Cannae. In due course he is defeated in North Africa by the Roman general Scipio Africanus.
