Civil strife occurs at Corcyra when, after a bloodbath in 427 BCE, the democratic pro-Athenian faction prevails over the oligarchical pro-Spartan party, with the Athenian commander Eurymedon not attempting to stop it.
The enslaved people, promised freedom by both sides, go over to the democrats (who may simply have made better offers).
