After the problems with Sparta were over, Athens looked westward to Sicily to expand its sphere of influence in the Mediterranean world. The idea was propagated by Alcibiades. Nicias, who had negotiated the peace agreement with Sparta was opposed to the idea. He was outvoted and three generals were named to lead the expedition to conquer Sicily. As events began to unfold, Athens suffered losses in their quest for a larger empire. Bottom line, the idea was a bad one.
