After Zama, Hannibal Barca didn't fade into obscurity. He became a politician in Carthage, then a mercenary commander for Antiochus III of the Seleucid Empire, and finally a fugitive in Armenia and Bithynia. This episode traces Hannibal's final decades: his reforms as suffete, the Carthaginian debt crisis, his escape to Tyre, his role in the Battle of the Eurymedon, and his final act of defiance in Libyssa. We explore the accounts of Polybius, Livy, and Cornelius Nepos, and ask whether Hannibal's exile was a tragedy or a strategic endgame. From the courts of the Seleucids to the rocky coast of Bithynia, this is the untold story of Hannibal after Rome. #HannibalBarca #Carthage #Exile #SeleucidEmpire #AntiochusIII #BattleOfEurymedon #Bithynia #Libyssa #Suffete #Polybius #Livy #CorneliusNepos #Tyre #PrusiasI #Flamininus #PunicWars #History #FexingoHistory Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
