Akarnania (English spelling)

Japanese: アカルナニア(英語表記)Akarnania
Akarnania (English spelling)
A backward region in northwestern ancient Greece. Today's prefecture is Aetolia-Acarnania. It formed a tribal league in the 5th century BC, but was conquered by Sparta in 390 BC and joined the Second Attic Maritime League in 375 BC. It then became subordinate to Macedonia, and the tribal league was reorganized into a league of cities. After a dispute with Epirus in which its territory was divided, it regained its independence around 230 BC and allied with Macedonia against Rome (200 BC). It was allowed to continue as a league after its surrender to Rome, but Emperor Augustus incorporated part of it into the new city of Nicopolis-Actia and included the rest in the province of Achaia.
