Scipio alishinda mapigano ya Zama katika Afrika ya Kaskazini. Jina lake Africanus (Mwafrika) limetokana na mahali pa ushindi wake, si kutokana na kuzaliwa huko, wala kuwa na ukoo wa Kiafrika. Kutokana na ushindi dhidi ya mpinzani aliyekuwa hatari kuu kwa Roma ya Kale Scipio alikuwa kati ya viongozi wa kijeshi mashuhuri zaidi katika historia ya Dola la Roma. Baada ya mapigano ya Zama Karthago ilipaswa kuomba amani ikapewa masharti ya fedheha.
