  Numidians The: The History of...

  Carthage was one of the great ancient civilizations, and at its peak, the wealthy Carthaginian empire dominated the Mediterranean against the likes of Greece and Rome, with commercial enterprises and influence stretching from Spain to Turkey. In fact, at several points in history it had a very real chance of replacing the fledgling Roman empire or the failing Greek poleis (city-states) altogether as master of the Mediterranean. Although Carthage by far preferred to exert economic pressure and influence before resorting to direct military power (and even went so far as to rely primarily on mercenary armies paid with its vast wealth for much of its history, it nonetheless produced a number of outstanding generals, from the likes of Hanno Magnus to, of course, the great bogeyman of Roman nightmares himself: Hannibal.  
  	What is often overlooked is how Carthage interacted with other groups in North Africa, some of which fought with them and against them. North Africa is generally thought of as a land devoid of life, full of nothing but desert wastelands and populated only by desert Bedouins, and while the Sahara Desert does comprise the majority of North Africa’s landmass, it is far from being the only significant sub-region of the area. Just to the north of the Sahara Desert, in what are today the modern nation-states of Algeria, Tunisia, and parts of Libya and Morocco, the land was known as Numidia in antiquity. Numida was the complete opposite of the North African stereotype of a desolate place - it was a land of plenty, the home of rich agricultural land that provided a good share of the Roman Empire’s food. Numidia was also home to the Numidian people, who were known for their horsemanship skills, bellicosity, and capriciousness when it came to their friends and allies. From the 3rd century BCE until the mid-1st century BCE, the Numidians ruled their land as independent kingdoms that dealt with their more powerful neighbors.

  Between 1765 to 1791, the American Revolution was an ideological and political revolution in British America. In the American Revolutionary War (between 1775 to 1783), the Americans in the Thirteen Groups established sovereign countries that beat the British, getting independence from the British Crown and establishing the USA of America, the first modern-day constitutional liberal democracy. 
  The tax of American settlers by the British Parliament, a body in which they had no direct representation, provided contention. Before the 1760s, Britain's American groups kept a great degree of internal autonomy, which was managed by colonist legislatures on a regional level. The Stamp Act of 1765 enforced internal taxes on the groups, leading to colonist outrage and the development of the Stamp Act Congress, which united members from different provinces. Stress reduced after the British rescinded the Stamp Act but flared again when the Townshend Acts were passed in the year 1767. In the year 1768, the British federal government dispatched soldiers to Boston to stop discontent, which led to the Boston Massacre in the year 1770. 
  This is the book you would have to read to learn more about the American Revolution. Go ahead and continue.
