Answer:i think i read this before last year but i hope it help

Explanation: the Third Punic War (149–146 BC) was the third and last of the Punic Wars fought between Carthage and Rome. The war was fought entirely within Carthaginian territory, in modern northern Tunisia. When the Second Punic War ended in 201 BC, one of the terms of the peace treaty prohibited Carthage from waging war without Rome's permission. Rome's ally, King Masinissa of Numidia, exploited this to repeatedly raid and seize Carthaginian territory with impunity.

In 149 BC Carthage sent an army, under Hasdrubal, against Masinissa, the treaty notwithstanding. The campaign ended in disaster as the Battle of Oroscopa ended with a Carthaginian defeat and the surrender of the Carthaginian army. Anti-Carthaginian factions in Rome used the illicit military action as a pretext to prepare a punitive expedition.

Answer:

The Third Punic War (149–146 BC) was the third and final of Carthage and Rome's Punic Wars. The battle took place fully within Carthaginian territory, in modern-day northern Tunisia. When the Second Punic War ended in 201 BC, one of the provisions of the peace treaty forbade Carthage from fighting without the permission of Rome. This allowed Rome's ally, King Masinissa of Numidia, to raid and take Carthaginian land with impunity.

Despite the treaty, Carthage dispatched an army led by Hasdrubal against Masinissa in 149 BC. The campaign ended in tragedy with the Carthaginian loss and surrender of the Carthaginian army at the Battle of Oroscopa. Car skeptic
