Best Answer

During the First, Second and Third Punic Wars, the Roman Republic fought the city of Carthage and its surrounding territories.

Ancient Carthage was founded by sea faring Phoenicians around 814 BCE. In 650 BCE Carthage gained its independence and became a major regional power in the Mediterranean. Carthage controlled large colonies in Northern Africa, the Iberian Peninsula, Sicily, Corsica, Sardina and other territories during much of its existence.

Eventually the growth of the Roman Republic brought it into conflict with the Carthaginians. The two powers fought the Punic Wars over the course of 120 years from 264BCE to 146BCE. At the end of the Third Punic War, the Roman forces destroyed Carthage and razed the city to the ground.
