Ciociaria (Italian pronunciation: [tʃotʃaˈriːa]) is the name commonly used, in modern times, for some impoverished territories southeast of Rome, without defined geographical limits. Starting from the Fascist Italy period and the creation of the province of Frosinone, the same name was arbitrarily imposed by the local Italian fascist organizations, and then misused by the local press, by promotional associations and folkloristic events as a synonym for Frosinone and all the popular traditions of its territory. The local dialect is referred to as campanino in old literature. It is merely a local variants of Central-Italian Latian but is improperly indicated as "ciociaro dialect", although the linguistic and scientific definition is Central-Northern Latian. In more recent times, the term Campagna Romana, or Roman Campagna, a favorite subject of countless painters from all over Europe, referred to the adjoining region to the north of Ciociaria but part of the province of Rome.
