Describe the tilt of the Earth compared to the Sun, during summer vs. winter in New York City. (dont know which subject so i guess geography)

during summer the sun shines on the tropic of cancer, during winter the sun shines on the tropic of capricorn, the earth tilts between these two so that the sun shines on them

the roman republic began to expand when rome fought the punic wars and defeated carthage. the punic wars refer to the series of 3 wars fought among rome and carthage, before it ended in carthage's defeat.

i think it's severe storms but i might be wrong
