When the Persian threat abated, Athens converted the Delian League into a virtual empire and continued to collect the funds to maintain its naval supremacy at little cost to itself. This strength allowed it to intervene in the affairs of other states, which formed the Peloponnesian League as a counter. With continuing Athenian adventurism, conflicts arose which laid the path to war.
