1693. A geographical dictionary representing the present and ancient names by Edmund Bohun.

Romagna, Romandiola, a great Province in Italy, in the States of the Church: of old called Aemilia Regio. Bounded on the West by Bononia, on the North by the Dukedom of Ferrara, on the South by the Dukedom of Ʋrbino, and on the East by the Adriatick Sea: a small part of it towards the Appennine is subject to the Duke of Florence, and therefore called Romandiola Florentina: The rest (which is the far greatest part) is under the Pope, as a Temporal Prince. The principal Places in it are, Ravenna, (the Capital), Faenza, Imola, Forli, Bertinoro, Rimini, Cervia, Cesena, Sarsina, and some others.
