Some are directly mentioned, while others are connected to the wider Roman and ancient Mediterranean world described in biblical history.

Key Biblical References Acts 16:9 - Macedonia Romans 15:19 - Illyricum Romans 15:24 - Spain 2 Timothy 4:10 - Dalmatia Hebrews 13:24 - Italy Ancient names change. Borders change.
