Darius I of Persia sought to fight Athens primarily because of their support for the Ionian Revolt against Persian rule. The Athenians had provided military assistance to the Ionian city-states, which angered Darius and threatened his authority. Additionally, subduing Athens would enhance Persian dominance in the region and serve as a warning to other Greek city-states about the consequences of defiance. Ultimately, Darius aimed to expand his empire and secure Persian interests in the Mediterranean.
