Korfu is a Greek island that is located in the Ionian Sea.
History
Classical antiquity
In antiquity, the Korkyraeans dedicated a bull statue to the Sanctuary of Delphi in Phokis following a "miraculous day" of tuna fishing.[1]
After the events of the Peloponnesian War, the Spartan misthios Kassandra retired to Korfu for a vacation.[2] She was found several months later by her friends Herodotos and Barnabas, who sought her for another adventure.[3] The phony treasure hunt set up by Barnabas turned out to be a real threat as Kassandra discovered an Apple of Eden, which drained the power from the Spear of Leonidas.[4] Barnabas later found the Apple and became corrupted by it, but fortunately Kassandra was able to deactivate the Piece of Eden and save her friend.[5] She then took up the burden of hunting down other dangerous Isu artifacts across the Earth, and departed from the island.[6]
Renaissance
Following the Ottoman invasion of Glarentza in 1460, the family of Manuel Palaiologos fled at first to Corfu, and later continued their escape to Rome.[7]
In May 1510, the Mentor of the Italian Brotherhood of Assassins, Ezio Auditore, chartered a passage to Corfu on the ship Anaan at the port city of Bari in southern Italy.[8]
