The Battle of Thermopylae in the Ancient Greek Wars against the Persian Empire. it deals with the valiant stand of the 300 Spartans and tends to ignore the 1000 Thespians who also stayed and fought to the end at the other end of the pass.
Based on Frank Miller's graphic novel, this film takes place during the Battle of Thermopylae of 480 BC where an alliance of Greek city-states fought the invading Persian army in the mountain pass of Thermopylae. Vastly outnumbered, the Greeks held back the enemy in one of the most famous last stands of history. Persian King Xerxes lead a Army of well over 100,000 (Persian king Xerxes before war has about 170,000 army) men to Greece and was confronted by 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians and other Slave soldiers. Xerxes waited for 10 days for King Leonidas to surrender or withdraw left with no options he moved. The battle lasted for about 3 days and after which all 300 Spartans were killed. The Spartan defeat was not the one expected as a local shepherd named Ephialtes defected to the Persians and informed Xerxes of a separate path through Thermopylae, which the Persians could use to outflank the Greeks.
The movie 300 is based on the attempted invasion of Greece by Persia, which failed. In the movie, there were only 300 soldiers preventing the Persian army from invading. Historically, the number would have been around 7,000 soldiers.
The movie 300 is based on the Spartan city state of ancient Greece. Similar to what happened in the movie the Spartans were greatly outnumbered but fought with much courage.
