The ancient region of Illyria was a region in the Balkan Peninsula that varied in size over different periods of time. The Illyrians were fierce warriors who controlled the entire Peninsula, which was across the Adriatic Sea from Italy. The name Illyria faded in 15th century, but was revived in the 17th century, and was used by Napoleon. The Kingdom of Illyria was coined from 1818 to 1849 under Austria, and then the name dropped when there was reorganization of the Austro-Hungarian Empire.
