How did the Persian-Greek war start?
King Croesus of Lydia died, and the Ionian Greeks came under the domination of the Persian Empire which they much resented, so they fought to throw out the Persians in the Ionian Revolt. Athens and Eritrea supported the Ionians with a token force (20 ships from Athens, 5 ships from Eritrea). The Ionian Revolt was successful at first, but after the Greeks sailed home it was crushed. Persian temples had been violated, and whether they did it or not the Athenians and Eritreans were blamed for it. King Darius I of Persia ordered a punitive expedition to these two cities, but a storm smashed his fleet. Another fleet was assembled, and the First Persian War began in 490 BC. Athens was saved at the Battle of Marathon, but Eritrea was destroyed.

The conflict between Persia and Athens culminated in several key battles during the Greco-Persian Wars, with Athens emerging victorious at the Battle of Marathon in 490 BCE. This victory was significant in boosting Athenian morale and influence. Later, during the Persian invasion led by Xerxes, the Athenians again triumphed at the naval Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE, further solidifying their dominance over Persia. Ultimately, these victories marked a turning point in the wars, leading to the decline of Persian power in the region.
Why did the Persian people oppose their ruler?
This depends on the time period. For the vast majority of Persian history, the Persian people actively supported their rulers, especially during the Achaemenid Empire, which is often seen as the Golden Age of Persia. The main criticism of the Persian rulers came during the Imperialist Period where the Qajjar Shahs had a policy of selling business concessions to Europeans. This angered the Persian population because it led to a diminishing of national Persian culture and an influx of Western influence and ideals.

What did Spartans do at Thermopylae pass?
As part of a Greek blocking force, they helped hold the pass for three days to make the Persians try to break through by turning the bottleneck by sea. The Greek navies were waiting offshore to pounce on the Persian navy to try to eliminate it and its threat to the Greek cities. As it turned out, the Greek navies were defeated and withdrew to try again at Salamis. The land blocking force at Thermopylae, its mission now invalidated, withdrew. The Spartan contingent of 300 heavy infantry and 2,100 light infantry, together with the Thespian contingent, remained holding the pass to allow the other city contingents to escape to the walls of friendly cities before the Persian cavalry broke through and rode them down in open countryside. They were killed to a man, a noble sacrifice to save their comrades.
