A brief maritime history of the Valencian Community
From ancient times, the region was a bustling center of commerce. The Greeks and Phoenicians recognized its potential for trade and established settlements along the coast, such as the city of Valencia. These early inhabitants brought with them agricultural practices that flourished in the fertile lands, leading to the cultivation of citrus fruits, olives, and grains.
The arrival of the Romans in the 2nd century BC marked a turning point for the Valencian Community. They enhanced the region’s infrastructure, constructing roads and ports that further solidified its role in maritime trade, where the port of Sagunto became a key player.
During the Middle Ages Valencia flourished as a cultural and economic powerhouse under Moorish rule. The region experienced significant advancements in agriculture, with innovative irrigation techniques transforming the arid landscape into a lush oasis. The ports of Valencia and Alicante became critical centers for exporting local produce, especially the region’s renowned citrus fruits.
