Leading the Delian League after the Persian Wars, Pericles put the treasury of Delos to good use for Athens' benefit, often using stolen funds, by remodeling the Great Agora, increasing the military after the losses of the Persian War, donating money to public and social works, remodeling the Acropolis with the Parthenon, and building several new Odeon's, which helped to kick start the theatre again. All of these things lead to significant cultural and political breakthroughs for the Athenians in the arts, and philosophy as well.

For all intents and purposes, it was the Golden Age for Athens, but it also lead to conflict between Athens and other, perhaps jealous, city states, causing the Peloponnesian Wars, from which Athens never recovered.
