Venetia and Histria

Venetia and Histria represent the northeasternmost parts of the Italy map, which were administratively grouped together under the Roman Empire. It is bordered to the west by the Po Valley.

Venetia and Histri were inhabited by and named after the Veneti and Histri respectively, though the area was also inhabited by several smaller tribes such as the Carni. The Veneti, Histri and others belong to a distinct ethnic group known as the Venetic peoples. Their exact affiliation is unsure, but they are usually considered to have been an Italic people related to the Latins and Sabellics, though they would have received strong cultural influences from the neighbouring Illyrians (by which faction group they are represented in-game), Ligures and, later, Gauls. The area was subdued by Rome in the 180s and 170s BC.
