Like Rome, Carthage was one of the largest and most powerfuk states in the Meditteranean. The Punic Wars between Rome and Carthage were over contril of the Island of Sicily. The Third Punic War makred the fall of Carthage; the Romans terrorized, looted, raped and enslaved the once great empire and its inhabitants. Cities were burned to the ground leaving ruins. The Romans even distributed salt throughout the lands so that nothing can be grown, this has a negative impact on the modern states of North Africa. The historical study of Carthage is promblematic for archaeologists because the culture and records of Carthage were destroyed.

∙ 9y agoRome and Carthage fought the three Punic Wars. Rome won all three. In the first one Rome gained control over Sicily, Sardinia and Corsica. In the second one Rome repelled an invasion of Italy by the Carthaginian general Hannibal, defeated the Carthaginians in southern Spain and took over their territories there and made an alliance with the Numidians, Carthage's next door neighbours in Algeria, who defected to Rome. In the third one Rome destroyed Carthage. The result of the wars was that Rome gained dominance over the western basin of the Mediterranean Sea.
