MySQL Error 1064 when trying to create a Matrix

Running Craft Version 2.6.2994 on an EC2 instance that has PHP 7.0.21, and MySQL v 5.6.37 installed. When I try to create a new Matrix, I get the following error when saving.

When I test this on my localhost, which has PHP 7.1.5 and MySQL 5.6.35 running Valet, everything seems to work fine so I'm not sure if this is an issue with the version of PHP/MySQL, or in the code. I've also tried it with the root MySQL user having full permissions and it still gives the same error.

CDbCommand failed to execute the SQL statement: SQLSTATE[42000]: 
Syntax error or access violation: 1064 You have an error in your SQL syntax; 
check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right 
syntax to use near 'COLLATE=' at line 9

The entire project shows 'COLLATE=' appears in ~2 locations:

MysqlSchema.php, LN 198:

$options = 'ENGINE='.$engine.' DEFAULT CHARSET='.craft()->config->get('charset', ConfigFile::Db).' COLLATE='.craft()->config->get('collation', ConfigFile::Db).($options ? ' '.$options : '');`

And DbHelper.php, LN 219:

$def .= ' COLLATE '.$config['collation'];

Current Plugins Installed:

Edit: Full stack trace:
