Greek Mythology > People, Places, & Things > Ionia
An ancient region on the western coast of Asia Minor which included the adjacent islands in the Aegean Sea.
Although Ionia shares a common name with the Ionian Islands and the Ionian Sea (which are both located on the opposite, i.e. western side of the Greek mainland) the district of Ionia is much more Asian than European and was colonized by the Greeks to disperse their growing populations and to expand their economic power base.
