Athens

It began in 508 BCE after the ouster of the tyrant Hippias, when Cleisthenes overcame the aristocratic party to give the citizens in assembly the power to make laws.

As the war went on Athens suffered some severe losses which were hard to replace, however they still maintained the quality and superiority by being seen to be the winners at sea, and attracting the best ships crews.

However the opposing Peloponnesian League was later subsidised by the Persians and so was able to offer double the pay which Athens offered, so attracting the best Greek crews, and the balance swung against Athens.
