Summary
The western provinces of Rome included almost all of western and eastern Europe, England up to the Scottish border, and the Balkans. The regional names and rough modern geographical equivalents of this vast territory are: the Iberian peninsula (Spain and Portugal); Gaul (France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Switzerland); Upper and Lower Germany, the lands west of the Rhine River; the Balkans and Illyricum (modern Adriatic states including Serbia, Croatia, Slovania, Bosnia, and Albania); Dacia (Romania) and Thrace and Moesia (Macedonia and Bulgaria).
