    Italian provinces

    Would anyone per chance know the respective capitals of the "provinces" in Roman Italy(Republican times)?


    Liguria: Genoa?
    Etruria:Pisae?
    Umbria:
    Picenum:
    Latium:Ok i know that-Roma.
    Samnium:
    Campania:Capua?
    Lucania:
    Apulia:
    Calabria:
    Brutii:

    I hope i am not forgeting any.

    And by the way what is the name of that province that includes the Fucinus lake?To be more specific this particular province borders Umbria,Picenum to the north, the adriatic to the east, Etruria to the west and Latium and Samnium to the south.

          Roman Provinces (North to South)

          I know that those cities were the most important in those regions but I have to confess that in most of the cases I guessed which could be the respective capital. Hope it helped though!

          Gallia Transpadana - Mediolan(i)um
          Venetia - Aquileia
          Liguria - Genua
          Aemilia (Gallia Cispadana) - Bononia
          Etruria (Tuscia) - Florentium, Volsinii, Pisae (could be)
          Picenum - Ancona
          Umbria - Spoletium (I guess)
          Sabini/Aequi - Corfinium (I guess)
          Samnium - Beneventum (Maleventum)
          Latium - Roma (though Rome itself had an adminitration on its own - Praetor urbi)
          Campania - Cumae/Kyme
          Apulia - Brundisium
          Lucania - Paestum/Posidonia
          Bruttii - Rhegium or Thurii/Colonia Copia

          Most of these cities I guessed because i´t is really difficult to tell from the maps I have at home. I need to go to my university though it is my summer holidays and I will have a look at the Institute of Ancient History if I could get additional information. I have a lot of maps here at home but I lack a scanner to provide you with them. I will see what I can do anyway.

          Attached you find a map of republican Italy that maybe prove useful too.

              Maybe you find something also on this website:

              The Roman Empire
              https://www.roman-empire.net
              Lasting many centuries and spanning over 1.7 million square miles, the Roman Empire was the predominant power in the ancient Western world.
