In ancient times, more precisely at the beginning of the first millennium BC, the region of Apulia was inhabited by theIapygians,while during the 8th century BC its coastal areas were populated byancient Greeks.[4]Later, the region was conquered by theancient Romans.It was then conquered by theByzantines,followed by theNormans,theAragoneseand theSpanish.Subsequently, it became part of theKingdom of the Two Sicilies,to then be annexed to the unifiedKingdom of Italyafter theExpedition of the Thousand.

Geography

edit
Monopoli
Torre Sant'Andrea,Salento

Apulia's coastline is longer than that of any other mainland Italian region. In the north, theGarganopromontory extends out into the Adriatic sea like a "sperone" ( "spur" ), while in the south, theSalentopeninsula forms the "tacco" ( "heel" ) ofItaly's boot.[5]The highest peak in the region isMonte Cornacchia1,152 m (3,780 ft) above sea level) within theDaunian Mountains,in the north along theApennines.

It is home to two national parks, theAlta Murgia National ParkandGargano National Park.[6]

Outside national parks in the North and West, most of Apulia particularly the Salento peninsula is geographically flat with only moderate hills.

The climate is typically Mediterranean with hot, dry and sunny summers and mild and rainy winters. Snowfall, especially on the coast is rare but has occurred as recently as January 2019 (following on from snow in March 2018 and January 2017).[7][8]Apulia is among the hottest and driest regions of Italy in summer, with temperatures sometimes reaching and exceeding 40 °C (104 °F) inLecceandFoggia.

The coastal areas, particularly on the Adriatic Sea and in the southern Salento peninsula, are frequently exposed to winds of varying strengths and directions, strongly affecting local temperatures and conditions, sometimes within the same day. The NortherlyBorawind from the Adriatic Sea can lower temperatures, humidity and moderate summer heat while the SoutherlySiroccowind fromNorth Africacan raise temperatures, and humidity and occasionally drop red dust from theSahara Desert.[citation needed]On some days in spring and autumn/fall, it can be warm enough to swim inGallipoliandPorto Cesareoon the Ionian coast while at the same time, cool winds warrant jackets and jumpers/sweaters inMonopoliandOtrantoon the Adriatic coast.[citation needed]

The area between Otranto andSanta Maria di Leucais part of the Regional Natural Coastal Park of "Costa Otranto —Santa Maria di Leucae Bosco diTricase"wanted by the Apulia Region in 2008. This territory has numerous natural and historical attractions such asCiolo,which is a rocky cove. In 2010 the Ministry of Health declared 98.6% of the Apulian coasts suitable for bathing.[9]

Antiquity

edit

Human settlement in Apulia dates back to at least 250,000 years ago, as evidenced by the fossil remains of theAltamura Man,an archaic form ofNeanderthal.There are numerous finds from the prehistoric era, including severalmenhiranddolmen.[10]

Around the 1st millennium BC, theIapygianssettled in the territory with the tribes of theDaunians,thePeucetiansand theMessapians,as well as the populations of the Calabri and the Sallentini (both settled inSalento); later, in the Hellenic era, theMagna Graeciacolonies were quite numerous, especially in the southern part of the region, including the city ofTaras,nowTaranto.[11]

During the secondSamnitewar (326–304 BC), theRoman army,in an attempt to provide relief toLucera,besieged by the Samnites, suffered a serious defeat in theBattle of the Caudine Forks,in 321 BC. Rome soon understood the strategic importance ofApulia(corresponding only to the central-northern part of present-day Apulia, while theSalento Peninsulawas known asCalabriain that period), but the occupation of the region, in the third century BC, was not easy, especially for the resistance of Tarentum and Brundisium. In 216 BC inCannaethe Roman army suffered its worst defeat againstHannibal'sCarthage.[12]

The RomanProvince of Apulia and Calabriawas then established, which also includedIrpinia.With the construction of theAppian Wayand, in the imperial era, of theVia Traianaalong which cities such asTroia,Ordona,Gravina,Canosa,RuvoandBitontoprospered. The region occupied leading positions in the production of grain and oil, becoming the largest exporter of olive oil in the East.[13]

Middle Ages and Renaissance period

edit

At theFall of the Western Roman Empire,Apulia also went through a long period of suffering.HeruliandOstrogothsinvaded the territory, but in the end it became the dominion of theEastern Roman Empire,from the 6th to the 11th century except for a brief partial occupation of the region by theEmirate of Bari.Bari became the capital of a territory extending up to present-dayBasilicataand subjected to the authority of aCatepanate.[14]With the advent of theNormansin the 11th century, Taranto became the capital of thePrincipality of Taranto,which extended across the entireTerra di Otranto.[15]

In 1043 the Normans founded the county of Apulia which in 1059 merged into the vastCounty of Apulia and Calabria,whose borders progressively extended up to inPrincipality of Salerno.From 1130 it became part of theKingdom of Sicily.In the 13th century the name Apulia was used by some authors to indicate the southern part of the Italian peninsula. During the Sicilian domination Apulia achieved great material and civil progress, which reached its peak withFrederick II,who was responsible for the construction of a series of secular and religious buildings, some of high artistic value, includingCastel del Monte,nearAndria.During this periodFoggiabecame one of his residences. From 1282, following the separation of the island of Sicily from the rest of the south of the peninsula, Apulia was under the rule of theKingdom of Naples,from that moment the power of the landowners began to take root in the territory.[16]

Early modern period

edit

From the middle of the 18th century the region of Apulia experienced a period of strong economic prosperity and excellent development of trade and agriculture. Between 1806 and 1815, during theNapoleonic era,provided the modernization of Apulia with the abolition of feudalism and judicial reforms until the return of the Bourbons and the birth of theKingdom of the Two Sicilies.Liberal movements were formed throughout the region in 1820 with the spread ofFreemasonryandCarbonari.[17][18]

With theKingdom of Italyestablished in 1861, Apulia was administratively divided into the provinces of Foggia, Bari and Lecce; to these were added in the twentieth century the provinces of Brindisi and Taranto. In the period following the unification of Italy, various brigand gangs arose, especially in Capitanata and Terra di Bari; among the major exponents are Michele Caruso, Antonio Angelo Del Sambro and Giuseppe Schiavone, the latter a faithful lieutenant of the Lucanian brigand leaderCarmine Crocco.[19]

Modern period

edit

With the progressive decline of thelatifundium,the ancient Apulian farms, properties of medium agricultural size, also decayed. Duringfascism,Apulia was affected by numerous land reclamations in vast areas and, following the post-war agrarian reform, the region enjoyed strong agricultural development.[20]In the 1970s and 1980s the economy of the region moved from the primary sector to the tertiary one, with notable development coming from the tourism sector.[21]

Economy

edit

The region's contribution to Italy'sgross value addedwas around 4.6% in 2000, while its population was 7% of the total. The per capita GDP is low compared to the national average and represents about 68.1% of the EU average.[22]

The share of gross value added by the agricultural and services sectors was above the national average in 2000. The region has industries specialising in particular areas, including food processing and vehicles inFoggia;footwear and textiles in theBarlettaprovince, and wood and furniture in the Murge area to the west.[23]

Between 2007 and 2013 the economy of Apulia expanded more than that of the rest of southern Italy.[24]Such growth, over several decades, is a severe challenge to the hydrogeological system.[25]

Apulia's thriving economy is articulated into numerous sectors boasting several leading companies, but most of them produce materials or components, not finished goods:

InTaranto,there is the largest metallurgical work ILVA Acciaierie di Taranto (8,200 empl.) in Europe with a full iron and steel production cycle. It will be sold toArcelor Mittal.[27]

InBrindisi,there is a chemical industrial park with anENIpower station,ENIoil refinery,Syndialchemical factory, andVersalischemical factory (basic chemistry, intermediates, polyethene, styrenics and elastomers).LyondellBasellpolypropylene plant,Sanofiplant (antibiotics). AnotherENIoil refinery is located inTaranto.[28]

Unemployment

Fishing and aquaculture

edit

The port ofTarantohosts numerous fishing boats. The fleet is mainly made up of about 80 fishing boats, which do not exceed 10 gross tonnage and which practice trawling, while the remaining small-scale fishing boats operate with gillnets. The sea, rich and generous, is populated bydentex,sea bream,glit-head bream,grouper,redfish,mullet,mussels,sea urchin,anchovies,shrimpandsquid.Other significant fishing ports areManfredonia,Trani,Molfetta,Mola di Bari,Monopoli,Castro,andGallipoli.

TodayTarantois the world's largest producer of farmedmussels:with 1,300 employees, around 30,000 tons of mussels are processed per year. Mussel farming has characterized the city's economy for centuries, making the mussel the gastronomic symbol of Taranto. It is said that the first mussel gardens inLa Spezia,Pula,OlbiaandChioggiawere established by mussel farmers who emigrated from this city. The workplace of the Taranto mussel farmers is the boat; every detail of the working method has improved over time.

10 m long structures made of wood or metal, called "pali" (piles), are attached to the seabed, to which ropes and nets are then attached, on which the mussels are grown. The mussels farmed here are particularly tasty and valued because they grow in a special environment, a mixture of salt seawater and karst freshwater. These special environmental conditions of the seas of Taranto are ideal not only for the mussels but also for the fish and crustaceans that find food and shelter between the piles. While there are around 18 submarine freshwater springs, called "Citri", in the Mar Piccolo, there is only one large one in the Mar Grande, which is called "Anello diSan Cataldo"in honour of the patron saint of the city.

Agriculture

edit

Agriculture plays a prominent economic role in Apulia. It is mainly intensive and modern agriculture that allows the region to be among the first in Italy for the production of many products:

Vegetable growing (lettuce,artichoke,fennel,cabbage,celery,barattiere,borage,sweet potato,caper,portulaca,broccoli rabe) and horticulture (peach,orange,clementine,lemon,kumquat,fig,pomegranate,persimmon,prickly pear) are also developed.

Viticulture

edit

Vineyards cover 106.715 ha (263.70 acres) in Apulia, which is 1st place among Italian grape-growing regions. But in the production of quality DOC and DOCG wines, Apulia has only ranked 12th of 20 with 297.667 hl. There are four DOCG wines:

  • Castel del Monte Bombino Nero
  • Castel del Monte Nero di Troia Riserva
  • Castel del Monte Rosso Riserva
  • Primitivo di Manduria Dolce Naturale

Oliviculture

edit

There are an estimated 50 to 60 million olive trees in Apulia, and the region accounts for 40% of Italy's olive oil production. There are four specificProtected designations of Origin(PDO) covering the whole region.[30]Olive varieties include:Baresane,Biancolilla,Brandofino(Castiglione),Buscionetto(Biancolilla),Carolea,Cellina di Nardò,Cerasuola(Ogliara),Cerignola(Bella di Cerignola),Cima di Bitonto,Cima di Mola,Coratina,[31]also grown in Corning, California, a 2018 Gold Medal New York International Olive Oil Competition (NYIOOC) winner,[32]Frantoio,Garganica,La Minuta,Leccino,Moresca,Nocellara Etnea,Nocellara Messinese,Ogliarola,Ogliarola Barese,Ogliara Messinese,Ottobratica,Peranzana,Rotondella,Santagatese,Saracena,Tonda Iblea,andVerdello(subspecies of San Benedetto).[33][34]

Xylella fastidiosadisease

edit

Since 2008–2010, the olive oil industry in Apulia has been under threat from the pathogenXylella fastidiosa,a disease that inhibits the trees' uptake of water and nutrients. The epicentre of the epidemic is the southeastern part of the region.

Tourism

edit

Apulia has many small and picturesque villages, 14 of them have been selected byI Borghi più belli d'Italia(English:The most beautiful Villages of Italy),[35]a non-profit private association of small Italian towns of strong historical and artistic interest,[36]that was founded on the initiative of the Tourism Council of the National Association of Italian Municipalities.[37]

Transport

edit

The region has a good network of roads, but the railway network is less comprehensive, particularly in the south. There are no high-speed lines, but a high-speed line between Naples and Bari is under construction, which should be completed in 2027.[38]The region is crossed northwest to southeast by theA14 highway(Bologna–Taranto), which connects the region's capital,Bari,toTaranto,the second most populous city in the region. The A14 also connectsFoggiaand points further north along the Adriatic coast toPescara,Ancona,Riminiand eventuallyBologna.The only other highway in the region is theA16(Naples–Canosa), which crosses the Italian peninsula east–west and links the region withNaples.

There are two international airports,Karol Wojtyła Airportin Bari (IATA:BRI) andBrindisi Airport(IATA:BDS), which serve as the principal logistical hub for the United Nations Global Service Center headquartered inBrindisi.With the approval of a redevelopment project in 2018, theGrottaglie Airfield(IATA:TAR) will host aspaceportfor theItalian Space AgencyandVirgin Galactic.

Emigration from the region's depressed areas to northern Italy and the rest of Europe was very intense in the years between 1956 and 1971. Subsequently, the trend declined, as economic conditions improved, to the point where there was net immigration in the years between 1982 and 1985. Since 1986, the stagnation in employment has led to a new inversion of the trend caused by a decrease in immigration.[39]

Language

edit

As with the other regions of Italy, the national language (since 1861) is Italian. However, because of its long and varied history, other historical languages have been used in this region for centuries. The local languages of northern and central Apulia (roughly the provinces ofBari,Barletta-Andria-Trani,andFoggiaas well as the northwestern parts of theProvince of Taranto) are the Apulian SouthernItalo-Romancedialects, includingBari dialectandTarantino dialect.In the southern region ofSalento,an extreme SouthernItalo-Romancelanguage, theSalentino dialectis widely spoken. There is also anItaliot Greeklanguage found in Salento calledGriko,which is still spoken by a few thousandGriko peoplein some areas.[43]In addition, a rare daughter language of theFranco-Provençal languagecalledFaetaris spoken in the mountain villages ofFaetoandCelle di San Vito,in theProvince of Foggia.It is sometimes classified as a pair of dialects of Franco-Provençal, Faetar and Cellese.[44]TheArbëreshëdialect of theAlbanian languagehas been spoken by a small community since refugees settled there in the 16th century.[45]
