Then, they moved to conquer some African territories but to do that they had to defeat Carthage in the Punitive Wars, which they did in 146 BCE. Then, the troops went west to capture the Iberic peninsula and to the East to capture the rest of Europe and parts of Asia. This expansion did not benefit so much to the middle and low classes of Rome as it did with the upper-class level that increased their wealth.
