They adopted a seemingly unbeatable strategies. They bribed some of the Greek city-states to join their side. When the southern cities continued to resist, they invaded with a large fleet and army. The fleet threatened the cities so that they kept their armies at home to protect them, and so were targets to be picked off one by one.
The southern Greek cities understood this and concentrated on first defeating the Persian fleet, setting up a blocking position at Thermopylae to entice the Persians to try to turn the position by sea. When they lost the sea battle at Artemesion in the strait next to Thermopylae the withdrew to Salamis for another try, this time successful. With the sea threat gone, the cities were able to send out their armies the following spring to combine and defeat the Persian army at Plataea.
Both sides had good strategies, and the winner of the naval war was bound to win.

What time of the year is best to go to Greece?
It really depends on what type of weather you want on your hols ^_^ I would remember that Greece is near the equator so if you want hot weather go in Summer. Winter is'nt too bad though, or you could go in an " in-between" season, Spring or Autumn. As for the people there, i should think the tourist industry booms in Summer when they all go on holidays when the kids are off school. So if your wanting a family holiday to Greece, your best bet is Summer. Hope this helped :)

In the short term, there would have been stability in mainland Greece instead of the Greek city-states continually fighting each other - the Persians ran a good administration as they had shown in Asia Minor. What would have happened in the medium to long term we don't know.
Why did the Persians think it was easy to conquer Greece?
They started by bribing many of the Greek city aristocracies to join them, and mounted an invasion force which they thought would outperform the resisting city-states, particularly as they were duped into thinking Athens would also come across to them and so leave the other Greek navies vastly outnumbered, as had been successfully achieved with the Ionian city-states in the Ionian rebellion.

What was the cost of the battle of Marathon?
The Persians decided that the Athenian victory would encourage all the Greeks to rise against them, and determined to bring all the Greek cities under control, by agreement or conquest. Some agreed , some resisted and the Persians invaded mainland Greece, culminating in the battles of Salamis, Plataea and Mycale. The Greco-Persians lasted from 499 to 449 BCE.
Did the Persians win Greece and give it to Sparta?
Uh.... no. The Persians lost the war with Greece, and they didn't "give" Sparta anything. It would be more accurate to say the Spartans "gave it to" Persia, with "it" in this case being "a Grecian urn of whoop-ass": at the Battle of Thermopylae between the Persian Army and a Greek force commanded by a Spartan general, the Persians lost 10 times as many men as the Greeks did. However, since they had 15-20 times as many men to start with, the Persians did manage to take the pass after being held off by the Greeks for about a week (including three days of actual battle).
Why did King Philip think Greece would be easy to conquer?
King Philip of Macedonia saw Greece as weak and divided due to constant infighting between Greek city-states.
