This history documentary follows up on the Rise of Carthage by taking a closer look at its Wars of Expansion. These conflicts in the ancient world are broken down into several theaters of war including North Africa, the Mediterranean, and Spain.

We then turn to the North African wars by which Carthage laid the foundations of its empire. Next we look at the wider affairs of the Mediterranean and how Carthage got involved in the affairs of the ancient Greeks, Etruscans, and Romans. Finally we look at the Spanish theater where Carthage finally expanded following the harsh losses of the First Punic War.
