What I make wrong?

You must have large armies. Or units that are too good serving as garrison soldiers in the cities. If you either replace your best guys with some cheaper ones, or if you take a few turns to focus on building a few mines or more trade buildings, you should be able with those provinces to really turn things around.

Yes, the greek sea is very good to get profits

Sounds like you took a very Greek way of expansion. Problem with this is that Navies are VERY expensive.

Thank you guys...
So...Teleklos i think that you have right,to the most cities I have large armies full stack and are good units....But I had a reason to do that....
Three times I lost Dalminio and 2 Ambrakia because a betrayal...The Qarthadast bribe the cities too easy....

Sounds like you should put a diplomat in each of your cities, then. They tend to make it much more difficult to bribe the garrison. Some assassins to kill the Carthaginian diplomats couldn't hurt either... well, at least not you.

Thank you my friend...

This diplomat never dies....

He is simply immortal

But i will try to have some diplomats to the cities...

Every city I have (After I have enough money to make it feasible) has a spy and a diplomat. The spy is there so I can see the armies nearby and the enemy assassins that are always lurking around and the diplomat makes it very hard to lose my cities to bribery. I also have several assasins runnign around my homeland so I can kill diplomats and assassins.
