Carthage. Tunisia. a Phoenician state with its capital in the city of the same name, which existed in ancient times in northern Africa, on the territory of modern Tunisia. The name Qart-?ada?t (in Punic notation without the vowels Qrt?d?t) is translated from Phoenician as “new city”. Carthage was founded in 814 BC. e. colonists from the Phoenician city of Tire. According to legend, Carthage was founded by Queen Elissa (Dido), who fled from Tire after her brother Pygmalion, the king of Tire, killed her husband Sychaeus in order to take possession of his wealth. Throughout the history of Carthage, the city's inhabitants were renowned for their business acumen. According to the legend of the city's founding, Dido, who was allowed to occupy as much land as an ox's hide would cover, took possession of a large area by cutting the hide into narrow strips. That is why the citadel erected at this place was called Birsa (which means “skin”). After the fall of Phoenician influence in the Western Mediterranean, Carthage reassigned the former Phoenician colonies. By the 3rd century BC. e. it becomes the largest state in the western Mediterranean, subjugating Southern Spain, North Africa, Sicily, Sardinia, and Corsica. After a series of wars against Rome, it lost its conquests and was destroyed in 146 BC. e., its territory was turned into the province of Africa. Julius Caesar proposed to found a colony in its place (it was founded after his death). After the conquest of North Africa by the Byzantine emperor Justinian, Carthage became the capital of the Carthaginian Exarchate. It finally lost its significance after being conquered by the Arabs.

BC. a significant part of the coast of North Africa, southern Spain and a number of islands of the Mediterranean Sea. The city of Carthage was the largest and richest city of the ancient world, its population reached 600 thousand people. The main source of profit for the Carthaginians was trade.


The port of Carthage had two well-defended harbors - commercial and military, connected by a canal up to 22 m wide. It was a vast circular pool surrounded by a huge ring-shaped building, the columns of which rose from the water. The entrance to the port was blocked by massive chains. The triremes sailed between the columns inside the arsenal and ascended along an inclined plane into dry docks designed for 220 ships. Panorama of Carthage (reconstruction)


In Carthage itself, wheat and barley were grown and wine was produced. Carthage imported all other goods from other states and its colonies. Caravans came from central Africa with gold, ivory, animal skins and slaves. Bread, silver, salt were brought from Sardinia, tin and iron were brought from Spain; from the shores of the Baltic Sea - amber, highly valued at that time. Carthaginian merchant ship


Goods arriving in Carthage were loaded onto ships and transported to other Mediterranean countries. Being a strong and rich state, Carthage could not tolerate rivals in the Mediterranean. The strengthening of the Roman Republic led to open conflict. Wars began between Rome and Carthage, called the Punic. Fruits (antique fresco)


Punic War BC. 1st Punic War BC. The First Punic War began in 264 BC. The Romans built a navy and successfully fought with Carthage, a powerful naval power. Despite the long resistance of the Carthaginians under the leadership of the commander Hamilcar Barca (248 - 241 BC), the Romans achieved a final victory. The Carthaginians concluded an unfavorable peace for them, abandoning Sicily and the adjacent islands. Hamilcar Barca. Image on a Carthaginian coin


2nd Punic War BC e. The 25-year-old son of Hamilcar Barca, Hannibal, soon became the commander-in-chief of the Carthaginian army. In the spring of 218 BC. at the head of an army numbering more than 100 thousand people. he crossed the Alps and broke through impassable swamps into Central Italy. In 216 BC. One of the most famous battles in history took place - the Battle of Cannes. Hannibal defeated a Roman army twice the size of the Carthaginians. Hannibal's army crosses the Alps


Hannibal did not deal the final blow - to take Rome. Meanwhile, the best Roman troops weakened the Carthaginians. In 212 BC. Hannibal again approached Rome. But he failed to take the city, and in 202 he suffered a crushing defeat in the Battle of Zama. In 201 BC. e. Peace was signed between Rome and Carthage. Under its terms, the Carthaginians lost a significant part of their possessions and destroyed their fleet. But even weak Carthage caused fear. This became the cause of the Third Punic War.

War on Carthage was declared by the Romans over a minor issue. This was not a fair fight, but the destruction of a weak opponent by a strong one. The Carthaginians courageously defended their hometown. Thanks to their tenacity, the war lasted 3 years. In 146 BC. Carthage was destroyed. On the site of the Carthaginian possessions, the Roman province of Africa was formed. 3rd Punic War (149–146 BC) Death of Carthage

    1) teacher's story:

    After the Romans subjugated Italy, they made preparations to capture the fertile island of Sicily. Their attempts to capture this island were opposed

    city ​​of Carthage.

    Where is this city located? (In North Africa) (page 4)

    Carthage is a powerful power in the Western Mediterranean. The colony once founded by the Phoenicians was located at the intersection of the main sea routes. In addition, Carthage had vast lands in North Africa, it owned part of Spain and islands in the Mediterranean Sea. It was a center for the exchange of handicrafts. The Carthaginians exported purple, ivory, slaves, ostrich feathers, gold sand for sale, and from Spain they brought silver and salted fish, from Sardinia - bread, from Sicily - olive oil, Greek artistic products, from Egypt - ceramics and carpets. The Carthaginians had a large army. Which consisted of mercenaries and a strong navy, in which there were many penter- large, fast ships with five rows of oars on each side.

    Nevertheless, Rome managed to win the first war with Carthage and take possession of Sicily.

    Rome owned the other part of the island of Sicily. Here the interests of the two powers collided. Both Rome and Carthage sought to capture the rich island. Since the Romans called the Carthaginians Punics, the wars between Rome and Carthage were called “Punic”

    - First Punic War (264-241 BC) (page 5)

    Cause: the desire of Rome and Carthage to capture the island of Sicily

    Results:

    1) Carthage lost the war

    2) Carthage lost its possessions in Sicily and Sardinia

    3) Carthage must pay a large indemnity

    Without waiting for the Romans to attack, the young and talented Carthaginian commander Hannibal was the first to strike.

    - (sl. 6) From childhood, Hannibal prepared for war with the Romans. When he was 9 years old. His father, going on a hike, asked: “Do you want to go with me to Spain? The nine-year-old boy readily agreed. Then Gemilkar led his son to the altar. “Stretch your hand over the altar,” said his father, “and repeat after me.” And the boy said after him: “I swear that I will never be a friend of the Romans and will do them as much harm as I can.” Hannibal was true to his word until his death.

    -(sl. 7) Coming out of Spain in 218 BC. at the head of a selected army, he approached the Alps five months later. His army was horrified when they saw the mountains. There were no good roads, there was snow on the passes. For 15 whole days the army climbed up and then went down. People and animals fell down. But Hannibal did not spare anyone. He wanted to leave these mountains as soon as possible. After all, it was cold here even in summer, and now it was September. He gave them a few hours to sleep, and then they were on their way again. At the halt, only frostbitten corpses of people and animals remained. When Hannibal crossed the Alps, he lost more than half of his warriors.

    When they found themselves in the valley of the Po River, Hannibal met Gaul tribes there. HE announced to them: “We are fighting only with the Romans, other peoples are our friends!”

    The Gauls gave Hannibal food and horses and joined his army.

    When the Romans learned the shocking news of Hannibal's advance, the Senate ordered troops to stop Hannibal's advance. But he managed to defeat the Romans in several battles, and the path to Rome was open.

    But Hannibal understood that he could not take a well-fortified city and moved to the south of the country.

    BUT Rome managed to gather a large army led by two consuls. They overtook the enemy near the city of Cannes, where the battle took place.

    2) work according to the textbook:

    Page 218-220 – Battle of Cannes

    (sl. 8-13) (reading and sketching the battle diagram)

    (pages 14 – 15)

    3) teacher's story:

    Philip V waged war against Rome and its allies for 10 years, starting in 215 BC. The fighting proceeded with varying success, in one battle the Macedonians gained the upper hand, in the other their opponents. The parties tried to attract more and more forces to their camp. So the Romans concluded an anti-Macedonian treaty with the Aetolian League and with Pergamum, and Philip with the Achaeans. In 205 BC. After many battles, the parties sat down at the negotiating table. The Romans managed to prevent the Macedonians from invading Italy and came to the aid of Hannibal. And although in the end a number of territories in Illyria were ceded to Philip V, his supremacy in the league of Greek states was shaken.

    The Carthaginians did not achieve success in Spain either, where from 215 BC. the Scipio brothers won several victories over Hasdrubal and Mago. As if in mockery of the skilled Carthaginian sailors, the Romans also successfully operated on sea communications. The fleet, commanded by the praetor Titus Otacilius, plundered the Carthaginian possessions in Africa, and on the way back defeated an enemy military caravan and captured 7 ships.

    Things turned out differently in Sicily. In 214-213 BC. The troops of Carthage, together with the army of Syracuse, inflicted a number of defeats on the Romans. The situation changed after the arrival of the experienced commander Marcellus in the army, who was able to turn the tide of hostilities and even besiege Syracuse. But hopes for a quick fall of the huge city were not justified; he continued to repel all attacks of the attackers. The greatest damage to the Roman troops was caused by the machines of Archimedes, who was one of the organizers of the defense. Syracuse was taken only by deception in 212 BC.

    After the capture of Syracuse, fighting on the island continued for another two years. The Carthaginians remained strong, but their army was undermined by internal strife. Hannibal sent the Libyan Muttin to help Hanno, who became the head of a detachment of Numidians. His cavalry fought quite effectively against the Roman troops, using lightning attacks and retreats. Muttin's successes displeased Ganno. He succeeded in removing Muttin from command, although the Numidians continued to successfully suppress the actions of the Romans until 210 BC. The dismissed Libyan entered into an alliance with Rome. Together, they were able to oust the Carthaginians from the island and completely take possession of Sicily.

    Hannibal's position in Italy remained difficult. Major victories were followed by protracted battles without tangible results. In 212 BC. Hannibal was able to occupy the important southern coast port of Tarentum, but lost Capua in 211 BC, which seriously affected Hannibal's authority as a military commander and political leader.

    In 210 BC. Hannibal defeated the Romans at the Battle of Gerdonia. During the battle, he again sent cavalry to the enemy’s rear, the blow of which decided the outcome of the battle. The subsequent Battle of Numistron failed to reveal a winner. The Carthaginians retreated. The displacement of Hannibal's troops in Apulia allowed the Romans to take Tarentum. The battle near Canusium ended in defeat for the Carthaginians. The elephants, sent forward by the troops, began to crush the Romans, but, bombarded with darts, they began to run, crushing Hannibal's soldiers. In 208 BC. The Carthaginians managed to destroy the brilliant Roman commander Marcellus, but their strength was undermined by continuous skirmishes with the consular armies. There was still hope for reinforcements from Spain.

    - (page 18) The decisive battle took place on October 19, 202 BC. 80 km from the city of Zama. Carthage had 30-35 thousand infantry, 4-5 thousand horsemen and 80 elephants. Scipio has about 30 thousand infantry and 6,600 horsemen. Hannibal formed his infantry in three lines, with elephants in front and cavalry on the flanks. Scipio positioned his troops so that the enemy's elephants could easily pass through the battle formations. At the beginning of the battle, Hannibal moved his elephants towards the Romans. But the attack was unsuccessful; the untrained animals were driven away with pipes and pelted with darts. The surviving elephants trampled their own infantry. The Numidian cavalry was able to defeat the Carthaginian cavalry and go behind Hannibal's infantry. This blow led to a quick outcome - the surrounded Carthaginian army was defeated, and its commander fled.

    In 201 BC. A peace was concluded, as a result of which Carthage was deprived of its fleet, lost the right to wage war and was forced to pay tribute to Rome for 50 years. But the confrontation did not end there. The final act of the drama took place half a century later.

    Let's write in our notebook:

    II Punic War (page 16)

    Causes:

    1) Carthage wanted to regain lost possessions and former naval power in the Western Mediterranean
