Greco-Persian Wars (History of Wars 4)
Language: Bulgarian
Greco-Persian wars undoubtedly have a major impact on ancient European history. From regional power, Persia becomes one of the largest territorial empires in antiquity. What are the reasons for this unprecedented upturn and what led to the war with the Greek poleis? How is the myth of Thermopiles born? Why does Spartan king Leonidas I remain on the battlefield, though it is obvious suicide? Why does Darius the Great not lead the Persians at Marathon? How does the outcome of the Battle of Marathon and Salamin help to save the Europe's cultural heritage?..
