What did the Delian League begin as an alliance to?
It was formed after the Persian invasion of mainland Greece was turned back. The Greek city-states in Asia Minor and the Islands which had been liberated from Persian rule needed protection and Athens formed them into a defensive League to protect them from Persia re-imposing its rule. The treasury to hold the members' contributions to pay for the League's naval forces was held in the Temple of Apollo on the island of Delos, from which came the modern name we give to it - the Delian League.
