Epirus — the Federal Land in 218 B.C.

Epirus — the Federal Land — Epirote League.

The land of the three peoples entire: Chaonia along the northern coast, Thesprotia between the Acheron and the sea, and Molossis in the high inland glens about Dodona. A country of mountains, herds and walled towns, knit since the fall of the kings into one federal republic with its seat at Phoinike — and in 218 a loyal western bastion of Philip V against the sanctuary-burning Aetolians.
