I have 2 but only have enough for one... you can answer one of them or both. Thx if you help!! :D How did the Roman Republic benefit from the Punic Wars?

Why was Rome no longer considered a republic after the Punic Wars?

question 1: The defeat of Carthage in the Third Punic War allowed the Roman Republic to become the superpower of Europe and allowed its influence to expand to North Africa. North Africa become the breadbasket of Rome for centuries.

question 2:Rome was growing and it was becoming incredibly wealthy after the Punic wars, but the republic was facing serious problems during this time. Many Roman politicians took bribes and they would encourage the forming violent mobs to aid them in rising to power.

please mark as brainliest...

Q1:A result of the first Punic War and the Romans was the decisive naval victory against the Carthaginians at the Aegate Islands This gave Rome full control of Sicily and Corsica Rome benefited greatly from the acquisition of Sicily

Q2:The wars against Carthage changed Rome The Senate had gained in power and prestige relative to the peoples assemblies the Comitias Plebis. And after the war ended many veterans from farming families preferred settling in cities especially Rome rather than return to the countryside
