They weren't defeated; at first they were, but before the war truly ended, Athens rebelled and took back their city, but after all the fighting, neither city was able to regain their wealth and Greece would never be as great as it once was. Historians refer to this as the "suicide of Greece." === === They were indeed defeated - they surrendered to the Spartan coalition unconditionally. The main effect on Athens was that it lost its empire, the revenue from which had provided for its prosperity and ability to maintain a superior navy. It never regained its old power and prosperity.

What was one of the results of being defeated in the peloponnesian war in 404 BC?
Athens surrendered unconditionally to the Peloponnesian League forces besieging it. It was stripped of its empire and had to live on its own limited resources, which put an end to the lavish expenditure on the city and inhabitants, and dominance of its fleet, all previously subsidised by the 180 cities of its empire. It became a second-rate power thereafter, able to intervene only in concert with other cities rather than dragging other cities along with it into its adventurous interference in the affairs of other cities.
How was the Anthenian navy able to hold off defeat for so long?
Athens started the Peloponnesian War with a navy superior in numbers and quality of ships, sailors and rowers to those of the opposing Peloponnesian League. As the war went on Athens suffered some severe losses which were hard to replace, however they still maintained the quality and superiority by being seen to be the winners at sea, and attracting the best ships crews. However the opposing Peloponnesian League was later subsidised by the Persians and so was able to offer double the pay which Athens offered, so attracting the best Greek crews, and the balance swung against Athens.
Which group of people resented Athens' growing power after winning the second Persian War?
The anti-Persian (Delian) League which it led resented Athens continuing to levy the contributions to the League and using them to pay for the glorification of Athens (Parthenon etc) and putting half its citzens on the public payroll. They also resented Athens collecting these contributions by force using the money to pay for the Athenian navy which extorted the money from them. The Peloponnesian League led by Sparta resented Athens using this naval power to interfere in the affairs of the cities of their League. The Persians temporarily resented their defeat, and when the Athenian league came to war with the Peloponnesian League, eventually supplied the Peloponnesians with the money to fund a fleet to match the Athenians, resulting in Athens losing the war and being stripped of the empire it had turned the Delian League into.

What was Athens the first in the world to do?
It experimented with radical democracy where all citizens met in a fortnightly assembly and discussed and voted on issues put to them by the councilors. This had mixed results and resulted in Athens being involved in the disastrous 27-year Peloponnesian war, losing and losing influence in the Greek world. The novelty of radical democracy wore off, the citizens attended assemblies infrequently, and it reverted to more authoritarian forms of government.
