The first war saw Rome fighting to break Carthage's growing hold on the chain of islands that enable it to control the W Mediterranean.
The second war directly pitted the ambitions of the two commercial powers; the initial area of conflict was Sicily.
The last war was the final, desperate attempt of Carthage to preserve Punic (Carthaginian) liberty.

Rome and Carthage.
Punic means Phoenician, and Carthage was a Phoenician settlement.
