The Campanian Cavalry are superb heavy horsemen from southern Italy. Campania was inhabited at first by the Oscans and later by the Etruscans. The main settlement of Campania is believed to have been founded by the Etruscans around 600 BC, with the name of 'Capue' and the resulting Latin name of 'Capua'. The region of Campania fell under the control of the Romans in 343 BC, during the 1st Samnite War. They are a high-status group in both the social and economic sense. Rome relied heavily on them, indeed they were given Roman citizenship, and a monument was erected in their honour.
