When the First Punic War ended, Rome forced Carthage to accept responsibility for starting the war. As a result, Rome took Sardinia and Corsica off Carthage - which was totally illegal under the Peace agreement signed by Rome and Carthage.
<span>The taking of Sardinia and Corsica has been argued by many leading historians and the writings of Polybius, that it was this that started Rome on the road to Empire. </span>
<span>However, Carthage did not see Sardinia and Corsica as part of the agreement and would be one of the major resentments of Carthage to go to war again - which Rome narrowly won. </span>
<span>When the Second Punic War ended, Rome forced Carthage to give up her commerical empire and destroy her navy - it gave Rome total control over the Mediterranean. </span>
<span>While the war gave Rome control of Africa, Rome used the war as a pretext to go after another one of its enemies - Philip V of Macedon, who Rome found had promised Cathage help against Rome. Demanding Macedonia's total surrender, Rome marched into Macedonia and allowed Rome to claim hegemony over Greece from Macedon. </span>
<span>WIth total supremacy, Rome used a flimsy pretext to totally destroy Carthage. When Carthage threatened to rebuild its walls, Rome used it as a pretext to declare war, destroy Carthage to the ground and force Carthage into slavery. </span>
<span>It is the Punic Wars that mark not only the Rise of the Roman Empire, but the fall of the Republic - famous Roman consuls (generals) as Scipio Africanus served not only as consul once but several times. </span>
<span>It also marked the rise of the Demagogue in Roman Politics - the famous Roman tribunes Tiberius and his brother Gauis would rise to prominence to fight for land distribution among Rome's allies - and would be murdered by the conservatives of Rome. </span>
<span>It also marked the rise of a dictatorship in times of Crisis - something which Roman consuls and popular politicians as Caesar would use to their advantage.</span>
