Reggio Calabria known as Reggio Calabria or Reggio in Southern Italy, is the largest city and the most populated comune of Calabria, Southern Italy. It is the capital of the Metropolitan City of Reggio Calabria and the seat of the Regional Council of Calabria. Reggio is located on the "toe" of the Italian Peninsula and is separated from the island of Sicily by the Strait of Messina, it is situated on the slopes of the Aspromonte, a long, craggy mountain range that runs up through the centre of the region. The third economic centre of mainland Southern Italy, the city proper has a population of more than 200,000 inhabitants spread over 236 square kilometres, while the fast-growing urban area numbers 260,000 inhabitants. About 560,000 people live in the metropolitan area, recognised in 2015 by Italian Republic as a metropolitan city; as a major functional pole in the region, it has strong historical and economic ties with the city of Messina, which lies across the strait in Sicily, forming a metro city of less than 1 million people.

Reggio is the oldest city in the region, despite its ancient foundation—Rhegion was an important and flourishing colony of Magna Graecia—it has a modern urban system, set up after the catastrophic earthquake on 28 December 1908, which destroyed most of the city. The region has been subject to earthquakes, it is a major economic centre for regional services and transport on the southern shores of the Mediterranean. Reggio, with Naples and Taranto, is home to one of the most important archaeological museums, the prestigious National Archaeological Museum of Magna Græcia, dedicated to Ancient Greece. Reggio is the seat, since 1907, of the Archeological Superintendence of Lucania; the city centre, consisting of Liberty buildings, has a linear development along the coast with parallel streets, the promenade is dotted with rare magnolias and exotic palms. Reggio has used popular nicknames: The "city of Bronzes", after the Bronzes of Riace that are testimonials of its Greek origins. During its 3,500-year history Reggio has been renamed.

Each name corresponds with the city's major historical phases: Erythra the name of the pre-Greek settlement. Rhegion, the Greek city from the 8th to the 3rd centuries BC. Phoibeia, a short period under Dionysius II of Syracuse, in the 4th century BC. Regium or Rhegium, its first Latin name, during the 3rd and 2nd centuries BC. Rhegium Julii, during the Roman Imperial period. Rivàh, Arabic name under the short domination by Emirate of Sicily, between 10th and 11th centuries. Rìsa, under the Normans, between the 11th and 12th centuries. Regols, Catalan name under the Crown of Aragon, in the late 13th century. Reggio or Regio, usual Italian name in the Middle and Modern age. Reggio di Calàbria, post Italian Unification; the toponym of the city might derive from an Italic word Rec. Ancient Greek and Roman etymologists derived it from the Greek regnynai, referring to a mythic earthquake in which Sicily was broken off from the Italian mainland; the history of the area before the arrival of the Greeks in the eighth century BC is not reliably known.

Mythical accounts record a series of different peoples in the region, including the Osci, Oenotrians, Ausones, Taureanes, Sicels and Itali. They claim that the land around Reggio was first known as Saturnia, or Neptunia; the term'Italia' referred to the area around Reggio itself, before expanding to cover present-day, southern Calabria, becoming the name of the whole Italian peninsula around the third century BC. The name derives from king Italus, an Oenotrian king of the region. After Cumae, Reggio was one of the first Greek colonies in southern Italy; the colony was settled by the inhabitants of Chalcis in 730 or 743 BC on the site of the older settlement, meaning "red". The legendary founder of the city was King Iocastus, son of Aeolus, said to be buried on the Punta Calamizzi promontory and appeared on the city's coinage; the colony retained the name of "Rhegion". Pseudo-Scylax writes that it was a Greek city. Rhegion was one of the most important cities in Magna Graecia, reaching great economic and political power during the 5th and 6th centuries BC under Anaxilas, who reigned as tyrant from 494-476 BC.

Anaxilas conquered Zancle. He was rebuffed; when he died in 476 BC, his two sons were too young to rule, so power was held by their regent Micythus. Under his rule, Rhegion founded a colony, Pyxous in Campania in 471 BC. Hieron I of Syracuse orchestrated Micythus' removal from power in 467 BC, after which Anaxilas' sons ruled on their own until they were deposed in 461 BC. During the Peloponnesian War, Rhegion allied with Athens. An Athenian inscription reports a renewal of this alliance in 433 BC; the Athenians supported Rhegion in a
