Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This map covers the Mercenary War in overall, starting from the mercenary revolt, and ending with the battle of Leptis Magna. It is mainly extracted from Polybius' work, who describes the key events in the war (Revolt in Sicca, the two sieges of Tunis, the battle of the Badgrades river, the battle of "The Saw" and The death of Mathô in the battle of Leptis, which meant the end of the war. Locations are drawn in order, but the arrows are far from accurate and try to represent long-term troop movements. There were long idle periods during the war where it turned to a kind of 'guerrilla' and troops stayed in the same place for months.
Español: Este mapa cubre la Guerra de los Mercenarios de Cartago en conjunto, comenzando por la revuelta de los mercenarios, y finalizando con la batalla de Leptis Magna. Ha sido extraído principalmente de los trabajos de Polibio, que describe los eventos clave de la guerra (la rebelión en Sicca, los dos asedios de Túnez, la batalla del río Bagradas, la batalla de "La Sierra" y la muerte de Mathô en la batalla de Leptis, que marca el final de la guerra. Las localizaciones se encuentran en orden, pero las flechas no son precisas e intentan representar movimientos de tropas a largo plazo. Existieron largos periodos durante la guerra en que ésta tornó en una especie de "guerrilla", y las tropas permanecían en el mismo lugar por meses.
