	~~'''Arcadia''', or '''~~Arkadia''', is a {{wiki\|regional units of Greece\|regional unit}} of [[Greece]] and a historical region of the [[Peloponnese]]. It was once upon a time known as the "Breadbasket of the Peloponnese" for its great agricultural output.

	A ruined [[Temple of Aprhodite, Arcadia\|Temple of Aphrodite]] harbored the apparition of the [[Isu]] [[Aphrodite]], alongside an [[Apples of Eden\|Apple of Eden]] that was recovered by an {{wiki\|ancient Olympic Games\|Olympic}} champion, [[Kyros of Zarax]], in the 6th century BCE.

	~~==History==~~
	Late in the 6th century BCE, Arcadia was ruled by King [[Iasus of Arcadia\|Iasus]], and the land became renowned for his athletic daughter [[Atalanta]]. A decree had been enacted that Atalanta could only marry a suitor who defeated her in a footrace, and the penalty for failure was death. After many suitors had been beaten and executed, Atalanta finally lost to Kyros of Zarax, an Olympic champion and protégé of [[Pythagoras]]. However, Kyros' victory was only facilitated by an Apple of Eden he had acquired from the ruined Temple of Aphrodite atop Arcadia's mountains.<ref name="ACPL">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' – [[Divine Science: Chapter 2 – Kyros of Zarax]]</ref>

	By the following century, the region had become wealthy from its heavy export of agricultural goods, among which included wheat, various crops, and honey from its bee farms. Arcadia had the largest agricultural zones of the peninsula during this time and so was popularly named the "Breadbasket of the Peloponnese". Aside from this, animals were also a significant part of its economy, but, reflecting its rustic reputation, it was a contemporary saying that there were more animals in the capital of [[Tegea]] than there were [[humans\|people]].<ref name="ACOD site">[https://assassinscreed.ubisoft.com/game/en-us/odyssey/map/peloponnese ''Assassin's Creed: Odyssey'' – Worlds: Peloponnese].

	~~==Geography==~~
	Arcadia is the central regional unit of the Peloponnese. Historically a remote, agricultural region, its land is characterized by wide, open fields and meadows.<ref name="ACOD site" /> However, significant parts of the area are highlands with mountains large enough to experience blizzards in the winter.<ref name="ACPL" />

	~~==Trivia==~~
	*Arcadia is considered to be the homeland of the Greek god of wilderness, [[Pan]]. There he was also considered a god of crops and fields, and of fertility.
