Why did the Greek city-states disunite after Sparta's victory in the Peloponesian War?
The Greek city-states were never united, they formed shifting alliances. The Peloponnesian War was between two groups, Athens and it's empire and the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta. The League won the war, not Sparta. When Athens was defeated, it was stripped of its empire, and became a second rate power. Without the threat of Athens, the city-states began to form other regional alliances which suited their own individual interests and so some of the allies against Athens realigned themselves, with eventually Thebes becoming dominant against a Sparta short on manpower after years of war losses.
One immediate outcome of the Battle of Thermopylae was that Athens and Sparta finally united true or false?
Sparta and Athens had been allies for some time. Sparta helped Athens in its struggle for democracy in late 507 BCE, and had also sent its army to help Athens at Marathon in 490 BCE 10 years earlier but had arrived too late for that battle. Athens was not present at Thermopylae, its forces were committed to manning its navy at the simultaneous battle of Artemesium. So the answer is False - Athens and Sparta were allies long before joining other southern Greek cities which united to repel the Persian invasion, and remained allies until 460 BCE when they had a falling out.
