In the Second Punic War he led an invasion of Italy, taking the war to the Romans, and by detaching many disgruntled Roman allies to his side, kept Rome on the defensive and away from Carthage for over a decade.

Rome eventually woke up and invaded Carthage. Hannibal was recalled and lost the battle of Zama in front of the city, losing the war.
