• Pyrrhus Imperator
  In -280, Pyrrhus, king of Epirus and nephew of Alexander the Great landed with his phalanges and elephants to defend the Greek cities of southern Italy and Sicily. Rome is at war against the Samnites and the Etruscans. In just three years, Pyrrhus is near the Rome walls and becomes king of Sicily. He won against the Romans and Carthaginians at the cost of terrible losses. Who can defeat him? The Carthaginian quinqueremes in the Straits of Messina or the legionaries of Rome terrified by elephants? or perhaps the Italiots and Greeks who change their alliance every day. Only the goddess Fortuna knows it.
