The greatest victory for Hannibal was the Battle of Cannae, fought in 216 BC during the Second Punic War.

Hannibal proposed to invade Italy and try to win over Rome's Italian allies, who provided at least 60% of the military manpower available to Rome. He also proposed that he lead this expedition.

The carthagin leader who almost defeated Rome?
