Hannibal lead his troops including war elephants around the Alps to surprise-attack Rome. He rampaged through Italy for a while, defeating all who crossed his path, but eventually ran out of food, because the Romans cut of f the Carthaginian's supply ships. Hannibal was not able to break down Rome's walls, therefore unable to beat them. While Hannibal was occupied in Italy, the Romans attacked Carthage, and eventually got them to surrender to Rome.
