In 499 BC several Greek cities in Asia Minor rebelled against Persian rule. To help their fellow Greeks, two city-states in mainland Greece - Eretria and Athens - sent soldiers to join the fight against the Persians. The Persians put down the revolt, but Darius recognised there would be ongoing problems of interference from mainland Greece so he sent an expeditionary force to brig Eretria and Athens to heel. This was turned back at Marathon, so he decided to bring all the mainland cities uder control. He died and his son Xerxes carried out the plan, which was defeated in three battles - Salamis, Plataea and Mycale.
