2.) Xerxes wanted revenge on Greeks. Greeks combined forces. Leonidas-Sparta King in charge of land. Fought Persians at Thermopylae “That is good news. We will fight in the shade!” Traitor told Persians about back path. Leonidas sent soldiers to safe place and a few men stayed back to fight. Persian won Thermopylae 486 B.C.

Salamis 3.) Themistocles-Athenian general in charge of sea. Wanted to cut off food supply to Persian Army. Fought at the Salamis straight. Greek ships were smaller and could turn around quicker and rammed Persian ships. Greeks won the battle on the water *****Persian Army march to Athens (everyone gone) Persians burn their city

PLATAEA 479 B.C. Greeks united together (BIGGEST Greek Army EVER!)

Sparta made deal with Persians and Persians crushed Athenian Army

Had young people questioned-sentenced to death
