Hispania
Roman provinces of Spain and Portugal. The republican provinces were Hispania Citerior (‘Nearer’, the Ebro region), and Ulterior (‘Farther’, the Guadalquivir region). Under the empire the peninsula was divided into three administrative areas: Lusitania in the west, Baetica in the south, and Tarraconensis. The Roman emperors Trajan and Hadrian came from Baetica.
