Phoenicia was an ancient civilization located in the region of the eastern Mediterranean, primarily along the coast of modern-day Lebanon, as well as parts of Syria and Israel. It was known for its maritime trade, skilled seafarers, and the creation of the Phoenician alphabet, which influenced many writing systems. Major city-states included Tyre, Sidon, and Byblos. Today, the legacy of Phoenicia can be seen in the cultural and historical influences throughout the Mediterranean region.
