Imagine getting your ass kicked so hard it takes 2, 000 years to recover enough to surrender

[ReiMari]

Fun fact! Rome is now entirely powered by Cato's rotations

[EchosTackyTiki]

2000 years later: Somehow, Carthage returned.

[TetsuShima]

Carthaginian girl from "Barbarians": THE ROMANS MURDERED MY FAMILY!!!
Germanicus: Oh, yeah? For being 150 years old, you look pretty good, to tell you the truth..."

[aggelos-]

Fun fact: The Peloponnesian war didn't end until 1996

[FreemanPresson]

The Punic Wars are now known as the 2, 249 Years' War.

You mean after two millennia Carthage returned? Clearly the 3rd Punic War wasn't that effective.

[mariuscatalin]

Cato the elder must be FOAMING at the mouth in the afterlife

[m.c.martin]

Italy and Tunisia just causally agreeing to end a war in 1985 that means the 3rd Punic War lasted around 2, 131 years 😂

[zachall]

From 146BC to 1985, wow that’s a long time to technically still be at war

[doctorsechs]

this is why i love your channel romaboo always revealing some obscure roman stuff to us

[TetsuShima]

-"Carthage does not need to end up destroyed. Let's try to not make this personal."

-"Everything got personal the moment you set foot in Rome..."

*Conversation between Hannibal and Scipio Africanus before the Battle of Zama*

Also known as the first world war, the Punic Wars were a series of three wars. If you want to read a fantastic story of how relentless Rome was after many set backs and final victory there are many books available. Worth reading and riveting stuff.

[JuliusCheemsar]

I honestly didn’t know this until someone shared it to me and I made a meme about it.

[Bryce]

I like how it was the Roman mayor and not the president of Italy 😂 that was a nice touch.

Punic war 1:
Carthage: surrender
Rome: no! >:c

Punic war 2
Carthage: surrender!!
Rome: no! >:c

Punic war 3
Carthage: please! We surrender! 😭
Rome: no! >:c

[TetsuShima]

In defense of the Romans, it is quite difficult to sign a treaty at that time, considering the fact that all the members of the other side are made of ashes 😉

[michaeldeierhoi]

The destruction of Carthage was a tragedy of history like hundreds of other tragedies. The amazing Phoenician culture as with countless others lost due to war would be fascinating to see preserved.

[OvertheHIL]

Every war ends in a peace treaty.

The Korean war had entered the chat.
