(Alexandropolis on the analogy of Philippopolis , the town of Thrace founded by Philip II the father of Alexander). He expelled the locals and settled a mixed population. The fact that we don't know where exactly Alexandropolis was founded, suggests that a Thracian raid may have caused its disappearance from history (See Zopyrion ). Tarn claims Alexandropolis was a military colony rather than a polis [1] Alexandroupoli is a city in Greece and the capital of the Evros regional unit in Thrace . It is an important port and commercial center of northeastern Greece. The city was founded as Dedeagach. According to the legend, the name was based on a wise old man or dede who spent much of his time in the shade of a local tree and was eventually buried beside it. Dedeagach remained the official name of the city until 1920 when it was renamed Alexandroupoli in honor of King Alexander of Greece . Alexandroupoli is about 14.5 km (9.0 mi) west of the delta of the river Evros , 40 km from the border with Turkey , 346 km (215 mi) from Thessaloniki on the newly constructed Egnatia highway , and 750 km (470 mi) from Athens . Around the city one finds small fishing villages like Makri and Dikella to the west, and suburban Maistros, Apalos, Antheia, Aristino, Nipsa, Loutra to the east, while north of the city are the ever closing Palagia, Abantas , Aissymi and Kirkas. At the 2001 census, the main city had a population of 48,885 and the municipal unit had a population of 52,720. The current metropolitan population is estimated at around 70,000 inhabitants, and its area covers the southern portion of the regional unit, running from the Rhodope regional unit to the Evros Delta. The municipality has a land area of 1,220 km² (468.73 sq mi). Besides Alexandroúpolis, its other largest settlements are the villages of Mákri (pop. 820), Ávas (497), Sykorráchi (309), Aisými (289), and Díkella (288).
