Darius I became angry at the Greeks primarily due to their support for the Ionian Revolt against Persian rule in 499 BCE. The revolt was seen as a direct challenge to Persian authority, and the Greeks' involvement in aiding the Ionians further fueled his resentment. Additionally, the Athenians' role in burning Sardis, a key Persian city, intensified Darius's desire for revenge, leading to his expedition against Greece. This animosity ultimately culminated in the Persian Wars.
