Campania is a region in southern Italy, with Naples serving as its capital. The region was colonized by Greeks and was a part of Magna Graecia, retaining a Greco-Roman culture during the Roman era. The name means "countryside" in Latin, and the French region of Champagne is named for the similarities between the two regions; the term "campaign" comes from the yearly military endeavors undertaken by the Roman Republic in the region during the Roman era. In 2014, Campania had a population of 5,869,029 people.
