After the Romans defeated Hannibal and salted the site of Carthage, they consolidated their victory by taking possession of the Carthaginian territories around the Mediterranean. This lead to Rome having an empire to administer, and to its influence over the Greeks. Thus, the Punic wars lead to Rome becoming the dominant power in the Mediterranean world.
