The capitol of Corinthia is Corinth, and is ruled by Prince Jason. Although Corinthia was never mentioned on the show, Jason's power is clearly shown to extend past the walls of Corinth as a city, and into the surrounding farmlands that border the other kingdoms.

  • Corinthia borders on Achaea to the west and southwest, the Gulf of Corinth and Attica to the north, the Saronic Gulf to the east, Argolis to the south and Arcadia to the southwest. - Corinthia
  • The territory associated with the city of Corinth in ancient Greece lay on either side of the isthmus of Corinth. On the northern side of the Isthmus, it was bounded by Mount Geraneia, which separated it from Megaris. On the Peloponnesian side of the Isthmus, Corinthia was bounded by Achaea to the west, and to the south by the territory of Argolis. The boundary between Argolis and Corinthia was rather fluid, and in both ancient and modern times, the regions have been considered together. Corinthia is discussed in the "catalogue of ships" of the Iliad, without being given that explicit name, but the major cities of the region are listed together under the leadership of Agamemnon. There is a modern regional unit of Greece of the same name. - Corinthia (ancient region)
