How was rome finally able to deaf Carthage and what did they do to the city?

Answer 1

Rome finally defeated Carthage in the Third Punic War (149-146 BCE) through a combination of military strategy and a prolonged siege. The Roman general Scipio Aemilianus led the assault, ultimately breaching the city's defenses after three years of fighting. Following the capture of Carthage, the Romans destroyed the city, burned it, and systematically dismantled its buildings. The remaining population was either killed or enslaved, and the territory was later repopulated with Roman settlers, marking the end of Carthaginian power.
