The Phoenicians of Carthage were sold into slavery by the Romans in 146 BCE. Of the Phoenician city-states of the Eastern Mediterranean absorbed into the Hellenistic Egyptian and Seleucid kingdoms in the late 4th Century BCE, Tyre and Sidon regained independence in the late 2nd Century BCE, however they were absorbed into the Roman Empire province of Syria in 65 BCE by Pompey. So today's equivalent would be something like the threat looming over Ukraine and the Baltic States.
