He persians landed in the plains near athens. as their army greatly outnumbered that of the greeks, the greeks hoped to find aid

from nearby sparta. a long-distance runner named pheidippides was sent from athens to sparta to request help, but the spartans were not able to send more soldiers at the time. regardless, the greeks were still able to win the battle. centuries later, legend developed that a runner had been sent from the battle to athens after the greek victory. after reaching athens, the runner proclaimed, "we are victorious!" and then fell to the ground and died. this legendary story is the inspiration for the modern long-distance runs that are performed today.

Answer: C. Battle of Marathon

Explanation:

The Battle of Marathon was fought in 490BC between Athens and Persia in what became known as the first invasion of the Greek mainland by the Persians and was led by Darius The Great.

Before the battle, the Athenians sent a message to request help from Sparta but the Spartans declined involvement due to their observance of a religious festival.

Regardless, Athens and her Allies inflicted a crushing defeat on the Persians that kept them out of Greece for over a decade before Xerxes the Great invaded their shores once more.

This therefore must be the battle that the text speaks of.

Answer:

North Korea, officially the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, is a country in East Asia constituting the northern part of the Korean Peninsula, with Pyongyang as its capital and the largest city in the country. To the north and northwest, the country is bordered by China and by Russia along the Amnok and Tumen rivers, and to the south, it is bordered by South Korea, with the heavily fortified Korean Demilitarized Zone separating the two. Nevertheless, North Korea, like its southern counterpart, claims to be the legitimate government of the entire peninsula and adjacent islands.

North Korea remains isolated due to two reasons: A. US has an alliance with the South. So it is not ready to let its allies communicate with the North. Since the US was the dominating power for long the countries not its allies too were not prepared to risk its displeasure.
