The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It linked the imperial possessions around Rome with those of the Exarchate of Ravenna, providing a land route between the two most important Byzantine strongholds on the Italian peninsula.
- The corridor assumed strategic importance after the Lombards seized much of northern and central Italy, cutting the direct passage along the Via Flaminia.
- Control of the corridor was essential for the Byzantines to maintain communications, supply lines, and political authority between Rome and Ravenna.
