Floria,_Greece
Floria (Greek: Φλώρια) is a small village in southwest Crete, Greece. Floria is part of the Kantanos-Selino municipality and, according to the latest census, has around 60 inhabitants.
On 23 May 1941 and while the Battle of Crete was unfolding, Floria was the location of a fierce battle between advancing German troops and the local population, who spontaneously decided to resist them. In reprisal, a few days later German forces executed several of the villagers during an operation that resulted in the razing of Kandanos.
Floria is also a name for a girl such as Florence or Florida.
