The Punic Wars, a series of far-ranging and fierce hostilities between Rome and Carthage in ancient times, initially began in a dispute centered on the island of Sicily. Local powers on that island, fighting each other, reached out for help from larger powers to their north and south. Those powers, Rome and Carthage, soon came to blows with each other on both land and sea in what has come to be known as the First Punic War.
