Question

(Please reply fast) What territory did Rome gain control of during the Punic Wars?

Answer 1

Answer:

B) Rome gained control of the Mediterranean Sea coastline.

Explanation:

At the end of the third Punic war, and after decades of conflict, Rome conquered all the Carthaginian possessions and razed the city of Carthage, its capital, with which the Carthaginian faction disappeared from history. Rome thus became the most powerful state in the western Mediterranean, which added to the end of the Macedonian wars and the defeat of the Seleucid emperor Antiochus III Megas in the Roman-Syrian war in the eastern Mediterranean, turned the Roman Republic into power dominant in the Mediterranean. The overwhelming defeat of Carthage meant a turning point that caused the knowledge of the ancient Mediterranean civilizations to pass to the modern world through Europe instead of Africa.
