a. phoenician wars.

b. byzantine wars.

c. punic wars.

The correct answer is c) Punic Wars

Explanation:

The Punic Wars were fought between 246 BC and 146 BC. The cause of the war was that Rome wanted to expand beyond Italy, first to Sicily, and then to Northern Africa. This obviously angered Carthage, which was located in Africa (in current day Tunisia).

Perhaps the most famous of three Punic Wars was the Second Punic War, in which Carthage general Hannibal participated. He is famous for crossing the alps with a huge army that included elephants, and laying seige in many italian cities after that. However, he was defeated.

The Punic Wars ended with a decisive Roman victory that allowed Rome to expand throughout the mediterranean sea.
