The city-states involved in the Peloponnesian War were weakened and they lost alot of soildier, who were also the farmers on which the prosperity and even survivability of the city-states depended. Further inter-city wars followed, and Persia had to impose the'King's Peace to stop the strife spilling over to its empire. This weakening of the cities allowed the rise of Macedon which became dominant ad then turned its attento to Persia, taking over its empire. Th Greek city states provided ongoing manpower for this, and the carpetbaggers who profited. The cities sunk into insignificance and subjection by a rising Rome. The drain of men to wars and to the East led First-century CE historian Plutarch to say thet by then there were not 3,000 warriors in all of Greece.

Sparta achieved hegemony over the city-states of peninsula Greece for thirty years. Warfare continued sporadically, with Thebes overturning the Spartan influence thirty years later.

As the ongoing warfare was disrupting the cities within the Persian empire, Persia imposed the King's Peace to settle down affairs.
