Why did Iraq and Iran eventually focus their fighting in cities such as Baghdad and Tehran?
This question assumes that the fighting was concentrated in large cities and names Baghdad and Tehran. This is not the case. The majority of the fighting was in rural and quasi-urban territory near the Iraqi-Iranian border and the Iranian Province of Khuzestan. The reason that the war was centered here was that Saddam Hussein's principal war objective was the annexation of Khuzestan Province for Iraq.

Who was fighting Peloponnesian War?
As a VERY brief answer which may very well be wrong: After the Persian wars, most Greek cities started the Delian League, which was a pool of resources and ships and men contributed by the cities to keep the Persians under constant harassment from the sea. Athens eventually took control of the League and it became more of an Athenian empire than a League. Eventually all the other cities got cross and Sparta declared war on Athens. There was lots of fighting and the war was lost by Athens when the Athenians foolishly squandered a big army invading Sicily.
