The Mediterranean Sea, also known as the Mesogeios Sea, Mesogeios Thalassa to the Greeks,[1] the Great Green (Sea) to ancient Egyptians,[2] and Mare Internum or Mare Nostrum to the ancient Romans,[3] is a sea connected to the Atlantic Ocean to the west, bordered by Europe to the north, the Middle East to the east, and Africa to the south.
The Mediterranean Sea and its surrounding coastlines comprise the Mediterranean region, with numerous port cities like Naples, Constantinople, and Alexandria.
History[edit | edit source]
In 48 BCE, Aya, an agent of Pharaoh Cleopatra, was dispatched to the sea with the mercenary Phoxidas to offer an alliance to the Roman general Pompey, who had fled Rome during the civil war against Gaius Julius Caesar. Aya and Phoxidas assisted Pompey near the Aegean Coast against ships sent by Cleoptra's brother, Ptolemy XIII. Afterwards, Pompey accepted the alliance and led his fleet to Egypt.[4] Later on, Aya continued working with Phoxidas to defend the sea against the Gabiniani, who sided with Ptolemy XIII.[5]
In the 2nd century CE, the Hidden One Lugos, a founder of the Liberalis Circulum, tried to transport two Pieces of Eden—the Ankh and the Scepter of Aset—from Egypt to Rome. However, while traversing the Mediterranean, a storm sank his ship, resulting in Lugos' death and the loss of the two artifacts.[3]
In 1510, the Mentor of the Italian Assassins, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, sailed across the Mediterranean Sea during his quest to find Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's library in Masyaf.[6] Three centuries later, in 1805, the Painted Lady merchant ship sailed from Italy to Libya, traversing the Mediterranean. Among the ship's passengers were the Black Cross Solomon Bolden and Napoleon's agent Jan van der Graff, who helped fend off a pirate attack during the voyage.[7]
