Hyborian kingdom situated southwest of Ophir, west of Koth and Shem, and south of Zingara, Argos is a nation of paramount seafarers, with cosmopolitan cities along the coast.

The most fertile region in Argos is the Khorotas River valley. The valley is filled with fruit orchards, farms, and oak forests where Argos' shipbuilding industry gets its wood.  Its capital, Messantia, lay on the coast at the estuary of the Khorotas River. Along the Zingaran border are ghoul-haunted forests; south of these lay orchards and croplands.

Part of the Acheron Empire until the arrival of the Hyborians, the Argossians were an amalgam of the non-Hyborian Zingarians, and Shemites.  The Hyborian invaders were seamlessly integrated into the urban Argossean culture, although remaining almost exclusively to this day its elite.  The inland provinces are a different affair and remain culturally rather backward.

The Argosseans are considered - by all but the Zingarians - to be the best sailors in the Hyborian world.  Maritime rivalry with their northern neighbour is intense.
