The main cause of the Punic Wars was the conflicts of interest between the existing Carthaginian Empire and the expanding Roman Republic. The Romans were initially interested in expansion via Sicily (which at that time was a cultural melting pot), part of which lay under Carthaginian control.

Carthage wanted to make Rome a Phoenician colony.

Explanation:

  • The fundamental driver of the Punic Wars was the irreconcilable circumstances between the current Carthaginian Empire and the extending Roman Republic. The Romans were at first keen on extension by means of Sicily (which around then was a social blend), some portion of which lay under Carthaginian control.  
  • After the Second Punic War, Carthage needed to surrender its military. It had just lost its armadas because of the First Punic War.Cato would complete the entirety of his discourses with the cry: Carthage must be obliterated. In this manner, when Numidia enroached upon Carthage soil, Rome was in the correct outlook to assault Carthage.
