Italians have darker skin because they live in a harsher climate than Northern Europeans. Over time, people 'evolve' to protect their skin from exposure to the sun. What we look at as skin color is largely due to the melanin content in the skin. This is also why a lot of Spaniards have darker skin. Also, Hannibal never conquered the Italian peninsula. He razed several towns and then would move on, until he was ultimately defeated when attempting a siege of Rome.
