Best Answer

The Persian Empire versus 180 Greek city-states which banded together, led at first by Sparta and then by Athens. The Persian Wars began with a revolt by the Greek city-states in Asia Minor against Persian rule. When the Greek city-states in mainland Greece intervened, Persia attempted to bring them under control too. This went on for 50 years 499 to 449 BCE, until the Persians gave up attempting to impose peace on the Greek cities and left them to return to their incessant wars against each other.
