The decline of Athens in its Golden Age was caused by a long, expensive, and ultimately disastrous war. For thirty years, Athens and its allies waged war against a coalition of Greek powers led by Sparta. After many ups and downs, the Athenians were beaten in 404 B.C.E. Despite brief recurrence of prosperity in later years, the economic and political losses by the Athenians in this war ended its "Golden" period.
