Lago Di Patria
Lake Patria or Lago Patria is the largest coastal lake in Campania, with an area of 2 km². It is located in the municipality of Giugliano in Campania, in the ''frazione'' called precisely Lago Patria, and partly in the municipality of Castel Volturno, in the province of Caserta. It has a characteristic heart shape. It is the southernmost of the Pontine lakes. At the time of the Latins it was known as Literna Palus and the city of Liternum extended on the south bank. In ancient times, especially before the hydraulic works of the 17th century, it extended further north, with a large marshy area. In fact, the Clanis, which in ancient times flowed into Lake Patria, was artificially irregular and led to flow 9 km further north, to Pinetamare. Today it is fed by modest freshwater streams and some springs, but also by a canal, now cemented, which connects it to the sea and allows the entry of salt water. The surface is located about 4 m above sea level. Lake Patria can be considered a co ...

Pozzuoli
Pozzuoli (; ; ) is a city and ''comune'' of the Metropolitan City of Naples, in the Italian region of Campania. It is the main city of the Phlegrean Peninsula. History Pozzuoli began as the Greek colony of ''Dicaearchia'' ( el, Δικαιαρχία) founded in about 531 BC with the consent of nearby Cumae when refugees from Samos escaped from the tyranny of Polycrates. The Samnites occupied Dicaearchia in 421 BC after having conquered Cumae and may have changed its name to Fistelia. It enjoyed considerable political and commercial autonomy favoured by the excellent position of its port with the Campanian hinterland. The Roman occupation of Campania after the end of the 1st Samnite War from 341 BC marked the start of the Romanisation of the Greek-Samnite city. During the Second Punic War (218-201 BC), Rome experienced the strategic importance of the port of Puteoli and reinforced the defences and introduced a garrison to protect the town from Hannibal, who failed to ca ...
