2.8 Corinth and her Colony Corcyra by Thucydides

account of the relationship between Corinth and its colony Corcyra, detailing the political tensions and conflicts between the two. Of particular interest is the account of the Epidamnians of the city of Epidamnos, colony of Corcyra. The Epidamnians sought assistance from Corcyra against barbarians, who refused. They then sent a delegation to Delphi to consult the Gods and received guidance to seek the help of Corinth. Corinth responded by sending a fleet to aid Epidamnos as they viewed it as their own colony and didn’t like Corcyra whose people didn’t honor them through the usual customs.
