      Hannibal Barca 2: The Return of Carthage

      Pretty ironic that Scipio Aemilianus prophecy about the end of Rome itself was built into the «reborn» of Rome’s oldest rival outside Italy

    2. Context: The Vandals were a barbarian tribe that invaded roman Africa and turned it into a barbarian kingdom in the 5th century, and became the major maritime threat of that century. Yet by the early 6th century they weakened to the point that Belasarius was able to steam role them.

      It was common for migration era kingdoms and people’s to weaken considerably after the fall of the roman empire because the migration forced leaders and warriors to cluch or die while their sons and grandsons lost that competency and started infighting and intrigue that weakened their kingdoms.
