Phocis is a region in central Greece known for its mountainous terrain and historical significance. It is bordered by Boeotia to the south and Aetolia to the west. The area is famous for the ancient site of Delphi, which was considered the center of the world in ancient Greek mythology and housed the Oracle of Delphi. The region played a crucial role in various historical events, particularly during the Classical period. It was involved in the Phocian Wars and was a key player in the Delphic Amphictyony, a religious association of tribes. Today, Phocis is appreciated for its natural beauty and archaeological sites.
