Can you tell me about the etymology of Syria? 
 What can you tell me about Syria's geography? 
 By Pliny's time, the larger Syria had been divided into a number of provinces under the Roman Empire: Judaea, Phoenice corresponding to modern Lebanon, Damascus and Homs regions; Coele-Syria south of the Eleutheris river and Iraq.
