The Punic Wars


Students will use either visual art or storytelling to demonstrate an understanding of the major events of the Punic Wars between Rome and Carthage.

Students may choose between the following options:

  • Draw a cartoon with at least six frames illustrating the major people and events of the Punic Wars. Make sure to include captions and color.
  • Pretend you are either a Roman or Carthaginian soldier at the end of the Third Punic War. Write a letter to a loved one explaining the history of the wars, your role in it, and how you feel about the outcome.

Students must include the following information in your product in some way:

  • Who was involved in the wars?
  • Major people, places, battles, or events
  • Who won each war?
  • Effects of the wars
