Generally speaking the Roman Empire, while still a republic began its empire with its victory over Carthage in the first Punic war from 264 BC to 241 BC. The major result was the occupation of the island of Sicily. Before the war Carthage and its Greek allies controlled Sicily. Earlier on Rome had conquered most of the Italian peninsula, however the conquest of Sicily was Rome's first procession that was not part of Italy.

∙ 10y agoThere is not a clear date for the start of the Roman Empire and there are disagreements over this. Some people see it as beginning with Roman expansion into central and southern Italy during the Second and Third Samnite Wars (326-304 BC and 298-290 BC). Others see as its beginning the acquisition of Carthage's territories in western Sicily and in Sardinia and Corsica at the end of the First Punic War (241 BC) and the acquisition of the Carthaginian territories in southern Spain in the Second Punic War (206 BC).
