Ancient Rome - Third Samnite War 298 bce

Blanda was a small settlement near the coast in the region of Lucania. Known for its fishing and trade, it contributed to the local economy and served as a minor but steady supply point. Despite its modest size, Blanda played a significant role in the ongoing tension between Roman and Samnite factions, being a strategic location for military resupply and commerce during the war.
