Narbonensis
Narbonensis was an ancient region located in what is now southern France. It was part of the Roman Empire and included important cities like Massalia (modern-day Marseille) and Arelate (Arles). The area was known for its fertile land and strategic position along trade routes, making it a significant economic center.
The region was named after the Narbo Martius, a city founded in 118 BC, which served as a key administrative hub. Narbonensis played a crucial role in the Roman expansion into Gaul and was known for its blend of Roman and local cultures, contributing to the development of the region's unique identity.
