Rome, an emerging land power, and Carthage a naval power, found it mutually convenient to be in alliance and so dominate the western Mediterranean. They came into conflict by getting sucked into a local dispute in Sicily on different sides. Rome, having dominated Italy, was interested in extending into Sicily. Carthage, a trading empire, saw advantages in controlling Sicily. Their alliance ended and a hundred-year war began.
