Molise

Southern Italy forms the lower boot of the Italian peninsula, containing the ankle (Abruzzo and Molise and southern Lazio), the toe (Calabria), and the heel (Apulia). On the eastern coast is the Adriatic Sea, leading into the rest of the Mediterranean through the Strait of Otranto. On the Adriatic, south of the spur of the boot, the peninsula of Monte Gargano, the Gulf of Salerno, the Gulf of Naples, and the Gulf of Gaeta are each named after a large coastal city.

Molise is a small region in southern Italy, bordered by Abruzzo to the north, Apulia to the east, Lazio to the west, and Campania to the south. It has a short stretch of coastline on the Adriatic Sea, and the rest of its territory is mountainous. Molise is the second smallest region in Italy, after the Aosta Valley, but it is packed with natural beauty, historical sites, and cultural attractions. In Molise, the city of Isernia is where traces of a million-year-old village were unearthed in 1979, the most ancient signs of human life ever found in Europe. And the quiet resort and fishing port of Térmoli, from where Italian and Central European time is set, is a good place to relax.

The region consists of the following Provinces: Campobasso and Isernia
