The Persians
There were nearly 200 city-states who united to fight off the Persians.
On land and sea, in Asia and Greece.
The Persians fought against the citizens of Athens who were aided by those of Plataea.
Because Persians came to Greece to conquer it and Leonidas and the other Greeks had to defend their country.
There was way to many to count.
