The Ionian islands comprise a core group of six – Corfu (Kerkyra), Paxi (Paxos), Lefkadha (Lefkas), Ithaki (Ithaca), Kefallonia (Cephallonia) and Zakynthos (Zante) – which trace a ragged line down the west coast of Greece*. None is more than 30km from the mainland, yet this has been far enough to exclude the Ionians from many of the key events in Greek history, most notably occupation by the Ottoman Turks.
