Why did rome and carthage fight three wars?

Rome and Carthage fought the the three wars known as the Punic Wars because the first war was fought over the possession of Sicily The second war was fought because Hannibal wanted to get Rome back from beating his father in the first Punic War and that time it was when they traveled though the land not the sea and went through the Pyrenees and Alps (mountains) losing half his men and horse and his secret weapon.. elephants The third Punic war was because Scipio realized that Hannibal left Carthage without any protection and attacked Carthage and burned Carthage to the ground and taking the people who survived as slaves in there growing community/army

The Punic Wars were a series of three wars fought between Rome and Carthagefrom 264 BC to 146 BC. At the time, they were probably the largest wars that had ever taken place. The term Punic comes from the Latin word Punicus (or Poenicus), meaning "Carthaginian", with reference to the Carthaginians' Phoenician ancestry
