Calabria

Local nameCalabria
LocationItaly

Calabria is a region in Southern Italy. It is a peninsula bordered by Basilicata to the north, the Ionian Sea to the east, the Strait of Messina to the southwest, which separates it from Sicily, and the Tyrrhenian Sea to the west. It has almost 2 million residents across a total area of 15,222 km2. Catanzaro is the region's capital.

Calabria is the birthplace of the name Italy, given to it by the Ancient Greeks who settled in this land starting from the 8th century BC. Thanks to its strategic position in the center of the Mediterranean Sea, the region became the center of Magna Graecia, with the foundation along its coasts of many Greek city-states that remained for centuries among the richest and most culturally advanced of their time. During this period, Calabria was the home of key figures in history such as Pythagoras, Herodotus and Milo.
