Sic Hannibal , minor V et XX annis natus , imperator factus , proximo triennio omnes gentes Hispaniae bello subegit . Saguntum , foederatam civitatem , vi expugnavit . Tres exercitus maximos comparavit . Ex his unum in Africam misit , alterum cum Hasdrubale fratre in Hispania reliquit , tertium in Italiam secum duxit . Saltum Pyrenaeum transiit . Quacumque iter fecit , cum omnibus incolis conflixit . Ad Alpes posteaquam venit , quae Italiam ab Gallia seiungunt , quas nemo umquam cum exercitu ante eum praeter Herculem Graium transierat , quo facto is hodie saltus Graius appellatur . Alpicos conantes prohibere transitu concidit . Loca patefecit et effecit , ut ea elephantus ornatus ire posset , qua antea unus homo inermis vix poterat repere . Hac copias traduxit in Italiamque pervenit .
Hannibal
,
having
been
born
younger
than
25
years
,
having
been
made
a
commander
,
he
approaches
a
period
of
three
years
conquers
all
the
nation
of
Spain
in
war
.
Saguntum
,
the
citizens
allied
with
Rome
,
conquered
with
force
.
He
prepared
three
big
armies
.
Out
of
this
one
was
sent
from
Africa
,
another
he
left
behind
in
Spain
with
his
brother
Hasdrubal
.
Across
the
pyrenees
pass
.
Wherever
he
went
,
he
clashed
with
all
inhabitants
.
Afterwards
he
came
to
the
Alps
,
The
Alps
separate
Italy
and
Gaul
,
which
no
one
had
ever
before
crossed
with
an
army
except
Hercules
the
Greek
,
because
of
this
having
been
done
it
today
it
is
called
the
Greek
mountain
pass
.
The
people
of
the
Alps
tried
to
prohibit
him
from
crossing
,
but
he
killed
them
.
He
opened
up
the
places
so
that
the
armored
elephants
were
able
to
go
there
,
where
before
one
unarmed
man
could
scarcely
be
able
to
crawl
through
.
Here
he
brings
across
the
troops
to
come
into
Italy
.
