Le 10 Mars 241 av. J.-C. (date supposée) : fin de la première guerre punique.

Tunisia has some of the oldest coins in Africa.

These coins were struck during the First Punic War with Rome (264-241 BC). Initial issues of the war were struck in relatively pure gold.

Starting in 264 BC, Carthage (present day Tunisia) and Rome fought 3 wars.

Stood Dido with a willow in her hand
Upon the wild sea banks, and waft her love
To come again to Carthage.

Even some of Rome’s emperors were African
