    The life of Hannibal Barca was one full of controversy, excitement, and great accomplishments. As a leader during the Punic Wars, a war fought between Rome and Carthage, he was faced with a multitude of tough decisions. His journey began at the young age of ten when his father, Hamilcar another great Carthaginian general, took him to Iberia and introduced him to the world of war. He was a child who had “grown up with war” (Hannibal, Clifford W. Mills) and in a time when it signified respect he became hungry to live up to his fathers name.
