Boeotia Regional Unit, Regional unit in Central Greece, Greece

Boeotia extends between the Gulf of Corinth and Gulf of Euboea, featuring fertile plains separated by mountain ridges linked to Mount Helicon.

The Persian invasion of 480 BC influenced Boeotia's political stance, leading to significant battles at Tanagra and Oenophyta between Boeotians and Athenians.

Ancient poets Hesiod and Pindar originated from this region, contributing extensively to Greek literature through their works about local myths and legends.

The regional unit contains six municipalities, with Livadeia serving as its capital and Thebes representing its largest urban center.

The northern plain of Boeotia, previously occupied by Lake Kopais, now functions as agricultural land following extensive drainage projects.
