why all the Hannibal hate? guy messed with the Roman like nobody. i wish they could figure out his route over the mountains
Well, two reasons I can think of :
1- The thread started about Romans, not Carthaginians. (Though as far as I'm concerned, we can discuss Carthaginians too if anyone wants).
2- I think his exploits, as great as they were, ended up with his "country" defeated and a lot of the fields salted by the Romans.

The greatest roman was jesus christ if you consider israel to have ever been a part of the roman empire and not just playing it cool til it was time to fight the war of northern aggression
