Pelagonia
Pelagonia is a plain and historical region in the south of North Macedonia, around Bitola and Prilep, extending into north-western Greece. In antiquity it was the land of the Pelagones, and in the Roman settlement of 167 BCE it formed one of the four republics into which Macedon was divided. In the Middle Ages it was a Byzantine and Bulgarian borderland and the site of a battle in 1259.
