Alpes Graiae et Poeninae

One of three small Alpine provinces Augustus carved out to run the mountain passes directly rather than leave them to Gaul or Italy — this one covers the Great and Little St Bernard routes. An equestrian procurator, not a senator, ran it: too small and too strategically narrow a job to hand to the Senate.

Tiberius and Drusus's Alpine campaigns conquered the region in 16–15 BCE; formal provincial status under an equestrian procurator followed later, under Claudius (41–54 CE).

No individually mapped places in Alpes Graiae et Poeninae yet — the province still shows on the map's boundary layer.
