No, The Delian League, founded in 478 BC, was an association of Greek city-states, members numbering between 150[ to 330 under the leadership of Athens, whose purpose was to continue fighting the Persian Empire after the Greek victory in the Battle of Plataea at the end of the Second Persian invasion of Greece. The League's modern name derives from its official meeting place, the island of Delos, where congresses were held in the temple and where the treasury stood until, in a symbolic gesture, Pericles<span> moved it to Athens in 454 BC. 

</span>Shortly<span> after its inception, Athens began to use the </span>League<span>'s navy for its own purposes. This behavior </span>frequently<span> led to conflict between Athens and the less powerful </span>members<span> of the League. By 431 BC, Athens' </span>heavy-handed<span> control of the Delian League prompted the </span>outbreak<span> of the </span>Peloponnesian War<span>; the League was </span>dissolved<span> upon the war's conclusion in 404 BC under the direction of </span>Lysander<span>, the </span>Spartan<span> commander.</span>
