Can anyone tell me how and when the provinces and diocese got 'switched' in England? The Roman diocese contained smaller provinces but the Anglican church in England consists of two provinces divided into smaller diocese.
The given links for some provinces point to the wrong article, in my opinion. I don't want to search the whole history of the Palestine for a few lines about the romans - or at least a link like this "History_of_Crete#Classical.2C_Hellenistic.2C_Roman_and_Byzantine_Crete". --Curero 20:37, 7 Feb 2005 (UTC)
Lusitania has a nice map of it's province in relation to the other provinces. Can we not have something similar for this page? -- Joolz 21:18, 1 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I'm not sure how to turn this into a template, and it probably needs some editing as well. However, I think we should refine and use this to classify and standardize all the subsequent province pages it links too, and create the ones that don't yet exist.
Also, I think this is a nice map that we can use as the basis for identifying the locations of Roman Provinces.
Responding to John Kelly's edits: I suspect that when the original author of the LRE section of the article on Provinces wrote "Thraciae" etc instead of "Thracia", s/he was in fact intending the nominative plural rather than the genitive singular. This is not I think necessarily wrong - the thought is "the Thracian provinces", and the fact is that certainly some dioceses are referred to in the plural in the Notitia Dignitatum - but some are certainly not and there is not entire consistency (in the west, Africa always seems to be singular, Britanniae always plural, while Italia(e) is sometimes one and sometimes the other), so the Wiki author is at least overenthusiastic. Anyway, the singular seems normally used by modern historians, including the major authority AHM Jones,and I think Wikipedia ought to follow that. So I have tidied accordingly.
