Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Romans were the most significant opponents of Carthaginian power in the Mediterranean Sea during the Punic Wars, with the Greeks also playing a minor role in some of the conflicts. The other options, such as Moroccans and Spaniards or Tunisians and Libyans, were not significant players in the Mediterranean during the time of Carthage's power. The Israelites and Egyptians were more focused on their own regions and did not have significant naval power at the time, and the Greeks and Persians were not contemporaries of the Carthaginians.
