It faces the Gulf of Taranto (Ionian Sea) to the southeast and the Gulf of Policastro (Tyrrhenian Sea) to the southwest and borders with Campania to the west, Puglia to the north and to the northeast and Calabria to the south: its borders, largely conventional, are the result of complex historical events. Comparatively small, it exceeds only Molise and Val d'Aosta in number of inhabitants: also the population density is very low and corresponds only to a third of the national average.
History. If we exclude the narrow coastal plains facing the Gulf of Taranto, Basilicata is completely mountainous, with mountains which rise to over 2,000 m.

In the 11th century, it was conquered by the Normans and from then, on it shared the fortunes of the Kingdom of Sicily (then of Naples and the Two Sicily's), though often the field of powerful overlords. In 1860, it was annexed to Italy. Since it lies in a seismic area, Potenza has been partly destroyed or damaged over the centuries by various earthquakes, the last occurring in November 1980.
