Carthaginian Peace

From 535 BC the family of the Magonids limited Greek expansion in the western Mediterranean, ensuring the prerogatives of the Carthaginian trade in Hispania, the Balearics, Sardinia and Sicily; and freed the Carthaginians from the tribute they had paid to the Libyans since the founding of the city, securing the foundations of the future empire. Carthaginian imperialism was primarily mercantile, with the aim always of commercial profit. The main factors of the Roman wars between 300 and 50 BC - that is, the decisive time limit between the end of his republic and the beginning of his empire - will be analyzed, concluding by outlining a policy ("what if"), to be applied in simulating how Carthage could have survived the expansion of Rome. The politics of the Republic of Carthage will be played, while the actions of the other contemporary powers will be simulated based on historical assumptions, each seeking to apply its own policy of "Divide et Impera" in a scenario that we can affirm, according to geographer Eratosthenes, as the first world war.
