Summary/Abstract: The period between 278-264 B.C. was conclusive for the fate of the Italic Peninsula. During this period of time, Rome gathered its efforts in order to anihilate the allies of the king Pyrrhus and to counteract the potential cores of resistance. The Roman campaigns affected the most regions of Italy, from the southern part till the northern zone of the peninsula. Simultaneously with these operations, Rome imposed security measures to consolidate its domination. Roman or Latin colonies were established in the strategic locations of Italy, in order to keep under control the important routes or to supervise certain regions. Also, there were seizures of territories and transfer of population, performed as security regulations as well. At last, the alliances brought the communities from Italy into a gradual state of dependence towards Rome, thus, setting up a lasting network of treaties organized on the principle of divide et impera.
