The Fall of Civilizations podcast had a wonderful episode about Carthage that I found very sad and beautiful.
To be fair "sad and beautiful" is the standard for the Fall of Civilizations podcast
I found the story of Carthage to be particularly interesting because they fell because Rome was so petty that they couldn't allow them to exist. Cato was a dick.
Julius Caesar would like to award you a consulship.
