Would have loved to see Carthage a few years prior to 3rd Punic War. Probably nothing like depicted above.

I know what this is, but my friend doesn't know. Could someone explain it to him?

Carthage was the main rival of Rome for the dominance of the Mediterranean. They fought some long and brutal wars against each other.

Are these suppose to be from two different time periods? I'm wondering why the change in building layouts between the two.

Think the second picture is from when Rome was in control

What a great city..... aaaaannd, it's gone. Rome sacked it and burned to the ground. 10/10 success for Rome.

Carthage looks a bit Romanish.

It's a little known fact that the sum of the squares of the two sides of the city is equal to the diagonal, per the Carthagorean Theorem.

Was Carthage ever great to begin with seeing how it had slavery and a class system ?
AmorphousPorpous
Well, it had the best slavery system. Simply the best. I gotta tell ya, we don't enslave people anymore. That's our problem! We get enslaved

Focus more money into defence.

That's actually not a very good analysis of the Latin. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carthago_delenda_est has a much better one.
