Profile
Scipio Africanus was a Roman general and statesman, born to an esteemed noble family. His family had produced a number of Roman consuls, and he had seized Spain for the Roman Empire in his youth, driving out the Carthaginians. The peak of Scipio's military career was during the Battle of Zama in 202 BCE. Through judicious use of tactics, he neutralized the threat of Carthaginian war elephants and broke through Hannibal's formation, exposing the Carthaginian army's flanks and laying the groundwork for a Roman victory. Though Scipio's armored infantry were lacking in mobility, their ingenious use of formation allowed them to defeat the Carthaginians. By this point, Scipio had driven the Carthaginians out of Spain as well as from their own lands, defeated the "Father of Tactics" Hannibal Barca, and forced the Carthaginians into a peace agreement with Rome, bringing victory to the Romans in the Second Punic War.
