Countries that have Controlled Carthage

Can you name the countries that have controlled the various settlements at the site of ancient Carthage since its mythical founding by Queen Dido?
Dates before conquest in 146 BC are approximate
Obviously it is historically accepted that Dido did not actually found Carthage, but in lieu of concrete dates, the late establishment date of 814 BC given by Timaeus of Taurmenium (preferred by Serge Lancel) is used here
Carthage has been uninhabited at several points in time in its history (146-122 BC; 92-49 BC, 1270-1884 AD) but control of the uninhabited land is counted for this purposes
Between the destruction of the fortress in 1270 and the construction of the Acropolium in 1884, it is assumed unless otherwise specified that Carthage was controlled by whoever controlled neighboring Tunis
