The Punic Wars led to the Rome's expansion beyond italy and to her gaining control of the basin of the western Mediterranean.

With their victory in the First Punic War (264 BC- 241 BC) the Romans took over the Carthaginian territories in western Sicily. Soon after the war Rome also seized Sardinia and Corsica form Carthage. She also imposed a ten-year war indemnity. During this war Rome also forced Syracuse, the most powerful of the Greek city-states in eastern and southern Sicily, to become a Roman ally.

With the second Punic War (218 Bc-201 BC) Rome took over the Carthaginian territories in southern Spain and formed an alliance with the Numidians of Algeria, who defected to Rome. She imposed a fifty-year war indemnity, reduced Carthage's fleet to ten ships, imposed the demilitarisation of this city-state and Carthage's disputes with her neighbours had to be arbitrated by Rome.

With the Third Punic War (179 BC-176 BC) Rome destroyed Carthage and took over her remaining territories: Tunisia and eastern Libya.
