Founded probably by the mid-to-late 9th century, its history as an administrative history was chequered, being variously split up and/or united with neighbouring themes. Location The theme covered the region between the Strymon and Nestos rivers, between the Rhodope mountains and the Aegean Sea. The area was strategically important. Not only did the theme control the exits to the mountain passes from the Slav-dominated interior of the Balkans into the coastal plains of Macedonia, but it was transversed by the great ''Via Egnatia'' highway, which linked Byzantine-controlled Thrace with Thessalonica, the Empire's second-largest city.. The region was peopled predominantly with Slavs from the late 7th century on, and retained a significant Slavic population at least until the 11th century.. Its main citie ...
