- The First, Second, and Third Samnite Wars, between the early Roman Republic and the tribes of Samnium, extended over half a century (343 BC - 290 BC), involving almost all the states of Italy, and ended in Roman domination of the Samnites. The Samnites, who held the Apennine Mountains to the southeast of Latium, were one of early Rome's most formidable rivals. Defeating them was a key stage in the process by which Rome went on to conquer the rest of Italy and spread further out, eventually conquering the whole of the Mediterranean Sea and beyond and creating the Roman Empire.
