Athens left the Delian League primarily due to growing tensions and conflicts with other member states, particularly after the Peloponnesian War. The city-state sought to consolidate its power and influence, leading to increased autocracy and imposition of Athenian ideals on allies. Additionally, financial strains and military defeats contributed to Athens' decision to distance itself from the League, which had originally been established for mutual defense against Persia. Ultimately, the desire for independence and a shift in political dynamics prompted Athens to withdraw.

The anti-Persian (Delian) League which it led resented Athens continuing to levy the contributions to the League and using them to pay for the glorification of Athens (Parthenon etc) and putting half its citzens on the public payroll. They also resented Athens collecting these contributions by force using the money to pay for the Athenian navy which extorted the money from them. The Peloponnesian League led by Sparta resented Athens using this naval power to interfere in the affairs of the cities of their League.
