Ravenna is a city in the Emilia-Romagna region of Italy. The city has a long and storied history as the seat of empires and popes. Once an important port, the City is now land-locked, connected to the Adriatic by a canal still very much in use. Like the earliest Venetians, the earliest inhabitants (of unknown origin) built stone houses on islands in marshy lagoons, and in time, the lagoons were filled and the settlement expanded. In 89 BC, the town, hitherto ignored by the Romans, became a federated town in the Empire. It was here, in 49 BC that Julius Caesar gathered his forces and cast the die when he decided to cross the Rubicon River. The Emperor Augustus developed Classe, a military harbor in 45 BC, which remained important through the Middle Ages. Today Ravenna is a small industrial and business center. The City has a pleasant, vivacious quality which has endeared, and continues to endear.
Situated on the north west coast of the Peloponnese, Patras is the capital of western Greece and with its major ferry port provides the primary gateway for connecting Greece with Italy and Western Europe. Patras consists of a passenger ferry port for handling sea traffic between Greece and other countries and also a commercial port. Patras passenger ferry terminal is a modern facility of around 3000 m2 and features passenger lounges, a bar, various stores, the Duty Free stores and shipping agents.
