The Battle of Thermopylae is probably one of the most famous battles during the Greco-Persian Wars.
Although the Greeks lost, they had guarded the Thermopylae Gorge for three days, albeit numerically overpowered.
Explanation:
- The battle took place on August 10, 480 BC, and it was a clash between the Persian army under the command of Xerxes I and an alliance of Greek policies led by the Spartan king Leonidas.
- About seven thousand Greeks under Leonidas command blocked the narrow Thermopylae gorge in central Greece, which was the only route the Persian army could make.
- According to ancient sources, the Xerxes army numbered several million soldiers, but according to modern calculations, there were between one hundred and three hundred thousand.
- The battle itself lasted three days, and a full two, much smaller Greek troops repelled the Persian attacks.
- On the third day, a Greek betrayed his compatriots and gave the Persians the location of a mountain road, and surrounded a part of the Persian army with the Greeks.
- Aware of the ambush, Leonidas disbanded most of the army and with 300 Spartans, 400 Tebans and 700 Thespians left to fight until the end. No one survived.
