Summary/Abstract: The expansion of the Roman Empire during the Principate leads to the creation of various unions between Rome and Black Sea city-states. The relations between Roman and local authorities is a question of great importance for the understanding of the integrational processes in the Empire. One example of such a union is the Western Pontic koinon among Istrum, Tomis, Callatis, Dionisopolis, Odessos and Mesambria. The analysis of this union can reveal the mechanisms of integration and government during the classical period of Roman law. This article aims to examine the relations between Rome and the Western Black Sea Coast city-states in order to reveal the basic principles of cooperation and integration of these cities under Roman rule.
