Explanation: Scipio Africanus was the Roman general who defeated the Carthaginian general Hannibal, effectively ending the Second Punic War. Years later they met at the feast of a neutral king, and ended up talking a bit about old times and who they considered the best military commander of all time (Hannibal said, “Alexander the Great, Pyrrhus of Epirus, and myself, in that order”). Hannibal even invited Scipio to come stay with him while they were both there, but Scipio had to decline, citing that he would love to, but that his fellow Romans would view such a thing with suspicion.
