Campania Italy

Certainly! Here’s a translation of your text into clear, contemporary American English: --- The coastal areas of the region were settled by the Ancient Greeks between the 8th and 7th centuries BC, becoming part of what was known as Magna Graecia. At that time, Capua was the leading city in Campania, while Naples stood out as a Greek-speaking exception. Campania is rich in culture, especially when it comes to food, music, architecture, and archaeological sites, including ancient places like Pompeii, Herculaneum, Oplontis, Paestum, Aeclanum, Stabiae, and Velia. The name “Campania” comes from Latin; the Romans called the region “Campania felix,” which means “fertile countryside” or “happy countryside” in English. Campania’s beautiful natural scenery makes it a major destination for tourism, with the Amalfi Coast, Mount Vesuvius, and the island of Capri remaining top attractions. ---
