Lombardy
Northern Italian region
Lombardy is a region in northern Italy, centered on Milan.
It is Italy's most populous and economically productive region, historically significant as a crossroads of Alpine trade routes.
The name appears in compounds like Lombardy poplar, a tall, columnar tree, and in historical references to medieval banking—Lombard Street in London's financial district recalls Italian moneylenders.
