"The legendary city of Carthage on the coast of present day Tunisia was the home of Hannibal, whom many historians call the greatest military commander of all time. Descendants of the Phoenicians, the Carthaginians were undisputed rulers of the sea by the third century BCE, dotting the Mediterranean region with busy trading outposts. In a battle for supremacy of the ancient world, Hannibal attacked Rome with an enormous army, which included dozens of war elephants. Students will learn that, despite sensational early victories, Hannibal was eventually defeated and Carthage totally destroyed by vengeance-seekin Roman legions."--DVD container cover insert.
