Hanbal: ------- Hannibal bin Halmagar Barqa the famous Hanna Baal or Bahnibal or Hannibal (247 BC - 182 BC), the commander of the Cartagian Phoenician belongs to the family of ancient Punica, and attributed to the invention of many of the tactics in combat is still valid today. "I learned a lot from Hannibal, where I used his tactics to plan my campaign in the Desert Storm," says American General Norman Schwarzkopf. His father, Helmagar, was the leader of the Phoenician Carthaginians in the First Punic War. His brothers Siderabal and Magu were among the greatest leaders of the Phoenician Carthaginians. He was the brother of the righteous wife of the leader Sederbel. The historians described Hannibal as the worst nightmares of Rome and the defeat of his prestige and image of the Romans as a monster who loved murder and bloodshed. So when they fear a disaster in all areas they say: (In Latin: Hannibal ad portas) means "Hannibal on our doors." Hannibal was born in North Africa in Carthage in 247 BC, and at the age of nine he accompanied his father, Halmagar Barca, to Spain. In 221 BC, the soldiers selected him as a leader after the assassination of Sardabal al-Adel, his sister-in-law. He was able to extend Carthage's influence over part of the southern Iberian Peninsula, including Sagunto, one of the Roman camps. Therefore, Rome saw this as a breach of the treaty that was held after the First Punic War, and demanded that it be handed over to Hannibal. The rejection of this request was the cause of the Second Punic War between 218 BC. And 201 BC. During a period of tension in the Mediterranean basin, Hannibal lived when Rome tried to impose its influence on the great powers of the region, such as the Phoenician Cartagena, the Hellenistic Kingdom of Macedonia, Zaragoza and the Seleucid Empire. His greatest achievement during the Second Punic War was when he marched with an army of warlords from Iberia to northern Italy through the Pyrenees and the Alps. In his first few years in Italy, he made three spectacular victories in the battles of Tribia, Lake Tresmania and Canai. In 15 years, Hannibal conquered most of Italy yet had to return to face the Roman invasion of North Africa. There are, of Scipio Africanus defeated in the Battle of Zama. After the war, Hannibal became governor of the Phoenician Carthaginian, and then he made many political and financial reforms to pay war reparations to Cartagena to Rome. These reforms were not supported by the Carthaginian aristocracy and were dispersed to Rome. During his exile, he lived in the Seleucid Empire, where he served as military advisor to Antiochus III in his war against Rome. After the defeat of Antiochus, he had to accept the terms of Rome. Hannibal returned to the Kingdom of Armenia and settled in Pythania, where he helped them to win a prominent naval victory over a fleet of Pygmies. Then he was betrayed and was supposed to be handed over to the Romans, but he took the poison that was said to have been kept in a ring to wear it for a long time to die captive in the hands of enemies. Hannibal is one of the greatest military leaders of antiquity, along with Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, African Scipio and Iberian. Many modern-day leaders like Napoleon Bonaparte and Duke of Wellington regard Hannibal as a "talented strategic leader." Several films and documentaries also dealt with the story of his life. The famous saying: "We will find a solution, or we will make one."
