I wonder do those in charge in Carthage and Alexandreia really understand the Roman mind? If they did they would realise their money won't buy them peace. Romans have never accepted a rival. Someone equal in power to us. And we never will. Carthage and the Ptolemies will be destroyed, maybe not in my lifetime, but they will be destroyed.
Woohoooo! Priceless!!!

Great update. Do go on, please!
