The Great Peloponnesian War

This brought about a delay in the war as both parties could not easily gain control of the land and sea. Sparta uses the strategy of invading the territory of Athens every year, and tends to destroy whatever helps Athens survive. Spartans are targeting farms and other resources, but the validity of this strategy is questionable. Since Athens had been protected by the construction of the initial of the Great Wall, it was almost impossible to Sparta army milled topped Athens.

Athens and Sparta, sometimes called the First Peloponnesus War, agreed to a cease-fire called "30-year Treaty" in 445. I accept. Over the next few years, each of their groups observed uneasy peace. When Athens had an alliance with Collins' strategically important colony, Corcyra (contemporary Corfu), the case that reached the resumption of hostile activities began in 433. Then there was a battle, then the Athenians apparently violated the "Thirty Years Treaty". Sparta and his allies condemn the aggression of Athens and are threatening to fight

AD 435 years, there is a deep-rooted distrust between Sparta and Athens, large war Peloponnese dispute over the Khutughtu Khan Kusala island - the year that has brought a new battle to (BC 431 BC 4th century BC)). This long and devastating war eventually led to Athens' defeat and shocked the foundation of the Greek civilization. The collapse of the Athenian Empire opened the way to the hegemony of Sparta (404 BC - 371 BC). Sparta's leaders soon moved to Thebe as they could not maintain control over the various alliances of Greece. Tavan supremacy lasted from 371 BC until 362 BC. Athens rebuilt the Aegean Empire, but the theme succeeded in revolting in 355 BC. Greeks are more chaotic than ever

Xenophon wrote during the Peloponnese War and the coming of Macedonia's reign. There is no doubt that he is a political turmoil that struck Athens after the conclusion of the Peloponnesos Whether it was a supremacy escalation of the Spirit of the Greek city or a subsequent Tabe's hand, I saw confusion. Or Persian tour has a mercenary empire, Persia concludes that an empty kingdom, and if they want, they are ready to be taken to the Greeks. In the era of the dim light of the Greek national system, Xenophon seems to have foresight about the rise of a new empire by choosing to look back the role of its founder Cyrus the Great and the old imperial Persian origin. However, in order not to misunderstand the purpose of Xenophon in writing, it is worth noting the characteristics of reflection.

In ancient Greek times, the Peloponnesos war showed a military change due to environmental determinism. After the Persian War, the Persian Empire was very weak ("Peloponnesus War"). The Athenian believe this is a good opportunity to attack and dominate the very important land. Some of the land they want to capture is called a fertile new moon, and resources such as very fertile soils suitable for crop cultivation and large drinking water rivers ("fertile new moon") are very It is abundant.
