The Battle of Thermopylae - Spartans and Persian
An ocean of Persian soldiers surrounded Leonidas and his 300 Spartan fighters. With the severity of a tempest, waves of hostile warriors slammed into the unwavering Spartans, who blocked blow after blow with their shields. Spears broke through enemy flesh like lightning bolts, shooting out from the Spartan line, yet their sheer numbers were too great. Brave Spartans started to fall one by one.

Spears broke, shields broken, and Leonidas and his surviving men were forced to mount a hill for their last stand by the Persian assault's unrelenting force. Amidst the mayhem, the great king was hit in the chest by an arrow. As Leonidas collapsed, his blood seeped into the ground below. As he lay dying, he saw his friends battling bravely and showing no signs of weakness even in the face of impending death.

And Today, we're going to take a look at The Battle of Thermopylae, which went down in history as one of the most awe-inspiring fights of all time.
The origins of Western democracy can be found in the city-states of ancient Greece. Amidst these rival city-states emerged Athens, a group of men with an ingenious notion: the population should have a vote in determining who would rule them. Then, Greek cities that the Persians had taken over in Asia Minor in 499 BC rose out in rebellion against the cruel despots who had been installed in charge of them.

Athens and Eretria sent soldiers to aid their conquered brothers. Despite achieving some significant victories, strategic errors led to the ultimate defeat of the Greeks of Asia Minor, and the uprising was put down. With Asia Minor back under Persian control, Darius I, the formidable Persian ruler, viewed the remaining free cities of Greece as threats to his empire and vowed to punish Athens and Eretria for their defiance.

He invaded Thrace and Macedon in 492 BC, and then he dispatched heralds to the surviving Greek city-states to demand that they submit to Persian control. With the significant exceptions of Sparta and Athens, most agreed that they were trying to save themselves. In Athens, the Persian heralds were thrown into a well, and their Spartan brethren did the same.
Furious, Darius began his conquest of mainland Greece and was successful up until he ran against 10,000 Athenians in Marathon. With a 2.5-to-1 advantage over the Greeks, Darius appeared to have an easy triumph; however, the Athenians pulled off a stunning victory that forced Darius to retire. With a severely damaged ego, Darius prepared an impending re-invasion and intended to destroy Athens; however, internal politics caused his preparations to be postponed, and Darius eventually passed away due to old age.
