186. 540s BC part 2 - The rise of Carthage

Officially, the “age of colonization" ends in 550 BC. There were a few random colonies founded after this time but not many and nothing really important, So (sadly?) we probably won’t have new colonies going forward. 

Its like if you were playing a video game the colonization phase is over and now its GAME ON!

So… what’s going on in Carthage cuz that’s where that part of the game is going to be heating up between the Greeks and Carthagenians.

This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.
