Phocis

Region of ancient Greece, north of the gulf of Corinth and west of Boeotia. The Phocian War 355–346 BC ended in the conquest of Phocis by Philip II Macedon, who destroyed all its towns except for Abae.

Delphi was within the borders of Phocis but was controlled by the Amphictyonic League, in the council of which Phocis had two votes.
