The Peloponnesian War-
The war between Athens and Sparta was the Peloponnesian War. the ancient Greeks called it the war between Athens and its allies and Sparta and its allies. The word Peloponnesian was used because the alliance led by Sparta against the Athenian empire was the Peloponnesian alliance, as most of the cities were in the Peloponnese Peninsula.
It was not limited to three. There was Sparts, Thebes, Corinth, Argos, Athens and a couple of dozen others, all shifting alliances as it suited them.
It was called the Persian War.
The war was between Athens and its empire and the southern Doric Greek states, most of which were located in the Peloponnesian Peninsula.
We call it today the Peloponnesian War. It was a 27-year war between the Athenian Empire and the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta.
The Peloponnesian War
Greek cities habitually resolved problems by either war or the arbitration by another city. Athens and Sparta had varied relations over several centuries, sometimes as allies, sometimes as adversaries.Their main contest was the Peloponnesian War, when Athens was intervening against Sparta's allies, who demanded Sparta's support.We today call this the Peloponnesian War 431-404 BCE.
