The Persian king Xerxes I left the Greeks alone for about ten years after his defeat at the Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE. This period of relative peace allowed the Greek city-states to regroup and strengthen their alliances, particularly through the formation of the Delian League. During this time, the Greeks focused on rebuilding their cities and fortifications in preparation for any future conflicts. Ultimately, this respite contributed to their eventual success in the Peloponnesian War.
