The Pacific is the world's last and greatest sea prize for rival and contending nations. With it the globe is spanned, and there is no more. Who was to be the final master of the Mediterranean, was still an open question until Scipio Emilianus ended the long duel of centuries between Semite and Latin, and the relentless " Carthago delenda est" of the elder Cato became a thing accomplished. The plowshare passed over the spot where the walls of Rome's greatest rival had stood.
