Origin of the name: The zone around Capua up to the time of the Romans was called Agro Capuano, subsequently it became Agro Campano and in the end Campania. This was the name given to coastal tirrenica and to the zone of the band. After the unity of the country was passed and there were numerous divisions of the zone, between the Dukedom in Naples, the Dukedom of Benevento, the Principality of Salerno and the Dukedom in Amalfi. With the constitution of the Kingdom of Italy in 1861, the Region brought its name of Campania, but clearly with more wide confinements. Click on the picture for more .
