Central Greece (geographic region)

Roumeli (Greek: Ρούμελη, romanized: Roúmeli) or Central Greece (Greek: Στερεά Ελλάδα, romanized: Stereá Elláda) is the most populous traditional geographic region of Greece. Since 1987, its territory has been divided among Attica, Aetolia-Acarnania as part of Western Greece, and the homonymous administrative region of Central Greece, which includes Phthiotis, Boeotia, Phocis, Evrytania and the island of Euboea. Roumeli forms the southern part of the Greek mainland together with the Peloponnese. The largest city of the region is Athens, which is also the capital of Greece.
