The ancient cities of Carthage and Corinth were rebuilt on his orders

Carthage was the ancient Carthaginian civilization's capital city. During the Third Punic War in 146 BC, the Roman Republic destroyed the old city. Julius Caesar established a new city of Carthage in the same area between 49 and 44 BC.


The Roman colony of Corinth, Colonia Laus Iulia Corinthiensis, was founded by Julius Caesar in 44 B.C. on top of the previous Greek city that had been demolished by the Roman consul Lucius Mummius in 146 B.C. For 102 years, the location was virtually unoccupied. According to literary sources, the Greek male population was massacred, while women and children were sold into slavery.

is also one of the major accomplishments of Julius Caesar. Julius Caesar came home in October, revealing himself to be a restless reformer. The Roman crowd had received free grain doles, which Caesar cut from 322,000 to 150,000 beneficiaries. The destitute were promised a new life in Spain, where he reconstructed cities like Carthage and Corinth and established new towns like Arles and Seville. In Asia Minor and Sicily, he instituted a new taxing system that safeguarded the people from extortion. Many building projects were completed under Caesar's reign, notably the famed Forum of Caesar with its Temple of Venus Genetrix.
