Argolis
Argolis is the smallest region of the Peloponnese but it's one of the most historic places in Greece and is constantly inhabited since the 8th millennium BC. As a historical and cultural radiance of the region is the development and prosperity of the Mycenaean civilization, as shown by the acropolis and palace complex at Mycenae. After its domination by the Romans, the Venetians, the Franks and the Turks, Argolis becomes one of the center stages of the Greek Revolution, with its city Nafplion, named also Naples of the East, becoming the first capital of the free Greek State.
