This episode I discuss the interwar period between the First and Second Punic Wars which I have dubbed the Inter Bellum Punica. This episode will serve as a precursor to next episode where I discuss the Second Punic War, also known as the Hannibalic War in our sources. The first part will be on Carthage’s expansion into Spain while the second part will be on Rome’s wars with the Celts in Italy.
