Best Answer

The Greek world from Sicily to Asia Minor was devastated, but the inter-city wars continued until Persia imposed peace on them to avoid the fighting spilling into its empire.

Sparta, temporarily dominant, was toppled by Thebes, and the ongoing turmoil allowed Macedonia be become dominant.
