Answer:
First Punic War Cause - Both empires wanted to take control of Sicily and Corsica, the perfect trading spot in all of the Mediterranean.
First Punic War Effect - It resulted in the destruction of Carthage. The Romans forced them to leave Sicily, return all captured Romans, pay a huge amount of money, and keep their quinqueremes out of the Roman waters.
Second Punic War Cause - Hannibal wanted to avenge his father's failures so he took eflephants and a massive army and marched to the Romans over the Alps. They were not able to attack Rome because of their advanced technology(siege towers, etc).
Second Punic War Effect - In distress, Hannibal and his army returned home. With their new leader Scipio the Romans had an advantage at the Battle of Zama. The Romans won and they forced the Carthaginians to give up their territory in Spain and the Mediterranean, give up their elephants, burn their warships, pay a fine, and never go to war without Rome's permission
Third Punic War Cause - Even after the huge defeats of the first two wars Carthage was still going strong. Rome demanded that Carthage hand over child hostages and demanded all of Carthage's technology. Carthage finally got mad and said no.
Third Punic War Effect -This started the third and final war. Carthage held their land for 3 years but finally lost. The Romans burned the city and many people died. This is why there is no evidence or any writings of Carthage.
