In 499 BC several Greek cities in Asia Minor rebelled against Persian rule. To help their fellow Greeks, a few city-states in mainland Greece sent soldiers to join the fight against the Persians.
The Persians put down the revolt, but Darius was still angry with the Greeks. Although the cities that had rebelled were in Asia, Darius was enraged that other Greeks had given them aid. He swore to get revenge on the Greeks.

∙ 12y agoAlexander secured his sovereignty of Greece after some resistance, and started a war against Persia in 334BC, following his fathers plans. He crossed the Hellespont with 35.000 Greek and Macedonian soldiers, and near the ancient city of Troy he defeated an army of 40.000 Persians and Greek mercenaries, losing only 110 men.
At the Battle of Issus in 333 BC, Alexander defeated the Persian king Darius II huge army. Darius himself fled, which demoralized his troops and caused general chaos, making it relatively easy for Alexander to defeat the Persians.
