Best Answer

It was called by Athens to help oppose the Persian attack in 490 BCE, but arrived after the battle was over.

It provided land and naval contingents and leadership at the battles of Salamis 480 BCE and Plataia 479 BCE.

It then turned its attention to its own internal problems and Athens took over leadership 478-449 BCE.
