Etruscan civilization

Etruria saw relegated to the northern Tyrrhenian Sea

540 BC
Ajaccio, France

Around 540 BC, the Battle of Alalia led to a new distribution of power in the western Mediterranean. Though the battle had no clear winner, Carthage managed to expand its sphere of influence at the expense of the Greeks, and Etruria saw itself relegated to the northern Tyrrhenian Sea with full ownership of Corsica.
