Athens and Sparta agreed to a truce, known as the Peace of Nicias, in 421 BCE during the Peloponnesian War to halt hostilities and allow for a period of recovery and negotiation. The truce aimed to stabilize the region, as both city-states were exhausted from years of conflict and faced internal pressures. Additionally, there were mutual desires to prevent further destruction and loss of resources, as well as to address their respective alliances and territorial disputes. However, the peace was fragile and ultimately broke down, leading to renewed warfare.
