The Beginning of the end…. The Peloponnesian War The Beginning of the end….

The Delian League Athens decided to form an alliance of city-states in the 5th century BCE called the Delian League. This was done because: The Persians remained a threat, even after defeat at Salamis. The feud between Sparta and Athens was erupting again.

More on the Delian League… The League met on the Island of Delos. Each member contributed ships, money and soldiers. Athens was the most dominant city-state in the League. The Delian League essentially became an Athenian Empire

“Ummm…excuse me”- Sparta Sparta, not to be out done forms a “league of her own”- The Peloponnesian League

Let’s Get ready to Rumble…. After Athens tried to expand its empire into central Greece AND Athens stopped some city-states in the Peloponnesian league from trading with Delian league city-states…. SPARTA & ATHENS FIGHT!!! 4

Sparta AND THE PELOPONNESIAN LEAGUE Vs. Athens AND THE DELIAN LEAGUE

The War… Sparta marched her army to the country-side near Athens. Pericles, the great Athenian general, ordered all Athenians to get within the city walls. The navy would be dispatched to attack enemy coasts and ships. Pericles

Tragedy Strikes Disease sweeps through a crowded Athens killing many (1/3 of the population)- even Pericles. The city is left weakened. However, the war rages on with either side winning small victories. For heroes have the whole earth for their tomb; and in lands far from their own, where the column with its epitaph declares it, there is enshrined in every breast a record unwritten with no tablet to preserve it, except that of the heart." Pericles' Funeral Oration as recorded by Thucydides

And we keep on going… The war dragged on with heavy losses on both sides. Persia supported the Spartan effort with $$$$$$$. With this cash, Sparta was able to build a fleet of ships…eventually to defeat the Athenian navy Greek Trireme

The end…. In 404 BCE Athens surrendered, giving up its foreign possessions and its fleet to become an ally of Sparta. However, Sparta’s attempt to dominate its former allies led to renewed conflict among Greek city-states. The inability of the city-states to form an allegiance left them vulnerable to ATTACK But from Whom??

Those Pesky northerners… Although a Greek-speaking people, the MACEDONIANS were seen as barbaric by their neighbours to the south. Under the leadership of Phillip II, Macedonia built an efficient army and turned them into the chief power of the Greek world.

“I have a Dream…” In 338 BCE, Phillip’s forces crushed the Greeks at Chaeronea. This ended the independence of the Greek city-states. They were now under the rule of Macedonia. Phillip wanted to invade Asia, but he was assassinated. The invasion would be left to his son….
