<u>Answer:</u>
The statement 'They allowed the Romans to focus more on expanding into the Western Mediterranean' describes the Punic Wars contribution to the development of the Roman Empire.
Option: (A)
<u>Explanation:</u>
- The Punic wars (264 – 146 B.C.) is a series of 'three wars' fought between Carthage and Rome, a then powerful city in northern Africa.
- The war started due to a dispute raised in the Island of Sicily, which was controlled by Carthage. Carthage was an established naval power during the 'first Punic war' (264 – 241 B.C.).
- But at the end of the first Punic war, Rome overpowered Carthage and became the land as well as naval power.
- It also took control of the Island of Sicily. Meanwhile, Carthage was able to occupy power in the territories of Spain.
- Carthaginian general named Hannibal invaded Rome during the 'second Punic war' (218 – 201 B.C.) with Spain as the base.
- He emerged 'victorious' in the initial attacks against Rome. However, Rome under the 'leadership of a young general Publius Cornelius Scipio' chased away Hannibal’s army and from here seized the lands of Spain.
- This allowed the 'Romans' to focus more on expanding into the 'Western Mediterranean'.
