Thebes became a major city-state in ancient Greece during the 4th century BCE, particularly after the Battle of Leuctra in 371 BCE, when it defeated Sparta and established itself as a dominant power in Boeotia and beyond. The city's rise was marked by its military strength and political influence, which challenged the supremacy of Sparta and Athens. Thebes played a crucial role in various conflicts, including the Corinthian War and the rise of Macedon, further solidifying its status as a significant player in Greek politics.
