The Phoenician civilization expanded mainly due to their mastery of maritime trade and navigation, which allowed them to establish prosperous trade networks across the Mediterranean. Key events included the decline of neighboring empires, such as the Egyptians and Hittites, which created opportunities for Phoenicians to fill the void in commerce. Additionally, the rise of demand for luxury goods, such as purple dye and glass, drove Phoenicians to establish colonies and trading posts in regions like North Africa and Spain. Their advanced shipbuilding techniques and skilled sailors further facilitated their expansion and influence.
