The correct answer is B, as an accurate description of the Punic Wars is that Rome became the dominant power in the Mediterranean after defeating Carthage.

The Punic wars refers to the three armed conflicts that faced between the years 264 BC and 146 BC the two main powers of the western Mediterranean of the time: Rome and Carthage.

The outbreak of the conflict was greatly influenced by the annexation by Rome of Magna Grecia, in the south of the Italian peninsula, but the main cause of the conflict between the two was the conflict of interests between the colonies of Carthage and the expansion of the Republic of Rome. The first clash occurred on the island of Sicily, partially under Carthaginian control. At the beginning of the first Punic War, Carthage was the dominant power in the western Mediterranean Sea, controlling an extensive maritime empire, while Rome was the emerging power in the center of the Italic peninsula. 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.

As a result of these wars, Rome 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 in the Roman-Syrian war in the eastern Mediterranean, turned the Roman Republic into the dominant power in the Mediterranean.

Impact of arms race
snow_lady [41]
The arms race changed the relationship between the democratic west and the Soviet Union and created an atmosphere of fear and national insecurity known as the Cold War. During the Cold War, the Communist and Democratic nations accumulated huge arsenals of nuclear weapons that could destroy entire regions of the Earth. From this mammoth amount of power and influence came distrust, accusations of treason, and an era of nationalism. Today, many of the weapons still exist and pose a large nuclear threat, causing both the West and the East to fear each other as well as the possibility of nuclear warfare.
