What are the greeks "wooden walls"

History
1 answer:
Verdich [7]3 years ago
4 0

The Persian army advanced through Attica and entered Athens.The Delphie oracle had said that Athens would he kept safe by her “wooden walls” and a few diehards, refusing to take part in the evacuation, remained behind a wooden barricade on the Acropolis. They learned too late that they had misinterpreted the oracle.Their resistance was overcome and Xerxes burned Athens. Themistocles and his sailors could now be sure that their ships were the only “wooden walls” which stood between the Athenians and annihilation.Unfortunately, although Athens had supplied by far the largest number of ships (180) to the Greek fleet, the admiral-n-chief was a Spartan. Athens had not yet the prestige to persuade other states to serve under her.At sea, as on land, a Spartan had to be in charge.

Can someone help me with this?
dem82 [27]

Answer:

no the U.S. should not have colonies as it can shatter unity all the colonies will do their own thing and can lead to bad thing.

wars will take place more often between the colonies for particular things like a mines.

this could create mass wars and death.

if they had to fight a war they would all be defeated easily and each colonies will do what they feel is right.

if colonies are made in the U.S. it can lead to mostly bad thing. Thus U.S. should not have even a single colony
