Ancient Roman City of Leptis Magna, Libya

"et ceterum censeo Carthaginem esse delendam", Cato said.

Cato represented the most conservative of the Roman senate. But in the final reel, all of them followed his advice.

Not only Carthage was beaten, but also Greece and all the kingdoms that had been created after the conquests of Alexander.....Egypt included. Only the Persian Empire was able to resist.. .

And finally the Roman Empire itself was brought to fall. Stat Roma (vel rosa) pristina nomine, nomina nuda tenemus.

The ancient arid Roman Province of Africa Proconsularis, where Leptis Magna is found, was consolidated after the stolid beleagured defeat of Carthage.

@AnonymousWhitePerson I could agree with you...but history can't be brought to trial.

@emalaith29

The city was founded after the Third Punic War.

@AnonymousWhitePerson Yes, I know that. But I mean, Carthage was cruelly knocked down...and turned to the Roman province of Africa. Modern historians have the duty to evaluate ancient Civilizations from an objective point of view. I think that Carthage was no way worse than Rome...but Rome was more powerful from the military point of view. It goes the same today:(

@emalaith29,

"Cartago delende est."

Carthage must be destroyed.
