**Carthage** was a large nation in [[i3]] founded by [[roguelich]] in partnership with [[Feddos]] and [[Jurri]]. By winning the Punic War against Rome at the grace's lifting Carthage emerged as early 3.0's superpower, with the server's highest population, a number of active towns and considerable military prowess. Following the disastrous war against Teutonica, the Jewish Rebellion and the falling-out with its erstwhile ally, Celtiberia, Carthage's power noticeably declined and eventually empire's capital city was sacked by the Epirus-led alliance. 

Refounded a week later, resurgent Carthage had to battle the dominant Graeco-Roman bloc for survival and recognition. Successful in this enterprise, Carthage partnered with the Norse to bring down the Graeco-Roman-Japanese alliance. In the server's last significant war, the Norse-Punic alliance had won almost all battles and skirmishes, Carthage however, fell prey to a night-time Towny alt-player exploit and was sacked again, with some Rome-friendly staff members unwilling to reverse the illegal damage.
