Always had this question, what would a world influenced by Carthage and not Rome look like?
>>18484857Funnily enough, there is a (Upcoming CK3) mod that asks and tries to answer the same question, albeit partially
>>18484869Not a fan of CK3 or EUV but I got to admit, that punic symbol in gothic style goes unbelievably hard.
>>18484857Romans didn't put the bar very high but somehow I think Carthage would be even worse.
>>18484857It would only change drastically if Rome was totally destroyed as Carthage was. Otherwise there would just be more Punic Wars in which Rome would defeat Carthage sooner or later.
>>18484857Honestly outside of specifically northern africa and the western med this is basically the same question as "what if the roman empire never existed?"
I actually think Phoenicians as a whole influenced Europe and The World a lot more than people like to think.I remember reading about how much they influenced the Nordic Bronze Age with trading and sailing techniques.
>>18485000That seems interesting, if a little far-fetched. You got a link or something?
>>18484857Likely more things written in Phoenician n: 𐤒𐤓𐤕𐤟𐤇𐤃𐤔𐤕 QRT𐤟ḤDŠT
>>18484857Would Carthage have been able to expand the way Rome did? I doubt it.
