when it took over Athens spot. This war was very important to history as it allowed
Macedonia a bystander in the war to challenge the strength of them as their power was
severely reduced from the prolonged war and it caused more wars which further
weakened Sparta and Athens and left the two powerhouses of Greece shadows of their
former selves. It's important to study this topic as back then Athens was the start of
democracy and Sparta the greatest warrior race most people know of went into war
most people only know the battle of Thermopylae but didn't know that Athens and
Sparta had actually fought each other after for power over Greece. Conclusions drawn
from research the war was an inevitability as Athens pride and refusal to back down to
Sparta sparked the war and Spartas warrior like nature only exacerbated the situation.
