La Puglia (AFI: /ˈpuʎʎa/; Apulia in latino, Ἰαπυγία Iapygia in greco antico, Apùlia in arbëresh) è una regione italiana a statuto ordinario dell'Italia meridionale, di 3 897 741 abitanti, con capoluogo Bari. Confina a nord-ovest con il Molise e a ovest con la Campania e la Basilicata, mentre è bagnata a est e a nord dal mare Adriatico e a sud dal mar Ionio. Comprende la città metropolitana di Bari (capoluogo) e le province di Foggia, Barletta-Andria-Trani, Taranto, Brindisi e Lecce. La Puglia è la regione più orientale d'Italia: la località più a est è Punta Palascìa (Otranto), distante 72 chilometri da Capo Linguetta, la punta più settentrionale della Penisola di Karaburun, in Albania, e 80 chilometri dall'isola greca di Fanò.
