After the Three Punic Wars, except for a few city-states that had surrendered to Rome before the war, such as Utica and Bizerte, which remained independent, large areas of northeastern Afrikana were occupied by Rome, while the southwest was part of the Kingdom of Numidia.
The part occupied by Ancient Rome came to be known as the "Africa Vetus."
Not long after, several city-states that had previously surrendered also came under Roman control.
During the Roman period, Afrikanes served as both a transit point and a major grain-producing region for the connection between Rome and Africa, and the Romans received large quantities of wheat (mainly in the north and west), wine (in the east) and olive oil (in the east and south) produced by Afrikaans.
In the three Punic Wars, the good horsemen of Berbers carried the cavalry component of both Carthage and ancient Rome, and were the elite troops of both sides.
Through the three Punic Wars, the East Numidian king Masinissa gradually unified the scattered and weak Berber tribes around him, and gradually established a hereditary North African kingdom that could compete with Carthage and ancient Rome.
Masinissa died in 148 BC, and at the time of Masinissa's death, the territory of the Numidian kingdom was almost equal to most of today's Maghreb.
Masinissa's son, Micipsa, succeeded him as the second king of Numidia.
However, fearing that Numidia would be called the Second Carthage, the ancient Romans manipulated the partition of Missipsa and his brothers, thus splitting the vast Numidian kingdom.
After Missipsa's death, his two biological sons, Adherbal and Hiempsal, were defeated by his adopted son (and nephew) Jugurtha, who wanted to reunite Numidia.
This infighting among the Numidian royal family eventually led to the war between Numidia and Rome, the Jugurtha War (111 BC to 105 BC), which gave the Romans (and ancient Mauritania) the opportunity to annex the entire Maghreb.
In 46 BC, civil war between Pompey and Caesar broke out in Africa, and after the victorious Caesar imprisoned Juba I, the last king of Numidia, who supported Pompey, Rome completely occupied Numidia, renaming it the province of Africa Nova.
From the Punic War, the Juguda War, to the Great Roman Civil War, Caesar's Civil War, Rome gradually occupied all of Afrikaans.
In 27 BC, Rome merged Old and New Afrikanas into the province of Africa Proconsularis and tightened its control over the region.
However, the Berbers continued to rebel, and for a long time the Romans had to be ready to fight the natives.
In 17 AD, Tacfarinas, a former Roman soldier and leader of the Berber Mulumes tribal alliance, led the Berber tribes of Chott (present-day southwestern Tunisia, desert, mountainous areas, and salt lake junctions) to wage war with Rome and incited Mazippa, a Berber tribal leader in Mauritania, to start the "Gaetulian War." War）。
In 24 AD, Tuckfarinas was killed, but the Berber resistance did not end.
In 40 AD, the Roman Emperor Caligula sent to stab to death Ptolemy of Mauretania, the son of Yuba II and Selene II, the king of ancient Mauritania (present-day Morocco, western Algeria), which completely provoked intermittent rebellions throughout the Maghreb.
Until the 3rd century AD, fighting continued in the Atlas region of ancient Mauritania, southern Afrikan (present-day Aures Mountains in eastern Algeria, southern Tunisia, northern Libya), and southern Libya (especially the Garamantes and Nasamones, two branches of the Berbers).
