The impact caused Athens to grow more powerful, but Sparta’s jealousy caused Wars between the two city-states. Athens and Sparta grew farther apart. City-states continued to fight, and the Government fell. Then came the golden Age of Athens. The Golden Age was when democracy, theater, sculpting and agriculture developed.

ReplyDeleteThe Persian wars in the late 5th century B.C. had a tremendous impact on Ancient Greece.
The Greeks didn’t like the Persians because the Persians were trying to tax them. Because the Greeks didn’t like them, they started a war. The Greeks were winning at first, but it took twenty years to really defeat the Persians. Athens and Sparta were rivals at first, but then they had to work together to fight the Persians. At the end of the war, there was a bloody sea battle and Athens got burned up, but they still beat the Persians by working together.

ReplyDeleteThe Persian Wars in the late 5th Century B.C. had a major impact on Ancient Greece Persia just wanted more and more land, but getting the land and ruling it was a challenge. They invaded every country that they were going to attack. When they decided that they wanted to rule all of Greece, the Persians had already rules smaller city-states and wanted to rule more. They Greeks wanted to keep their country away from getting even close to being ruled by the Persians. They came very close to being rule by them. The two Greek city-states Athens and Sparta weren’t enemies at the time but the country wasn’t very unified. Athens and Sparta had to come together to fight the Persians. Athens had a very good navy, and Sparta had a very good Army. But the only reason that Persian was attacking was because they wanted more and more land. The Persians thought they the Greeks were very weak so they were an easy target. But Greece didn’t let that happen, they won over the powerful Persian Empire.
ReplyDeleteThese are the impacts on Greece after the Persian wars.One impact was the war taught Greeks a little bit of unity between city states.This is important because other empires were on the rise.It also taught Greece that other empires were rising and could defeat them.This is important because its making them realize whats happening .Another impact is it taught Greeks they were strong as one empire.This is important because they may want to become one empire.Another impact is it taught them how to work together to defeat an enemy.This is important because alot of empires want to take Greece down.The last and biggest impact is when they won they went back to battling each other and weakening themselves while other empires were joining together and becoming stronger.This is a big impact because it eventually makes it so they don't want to join forces and the Greece city states are defeated.This is big because not joining forces ends up coming back to get them.

ReplyDeleteThe Persian Wars in the late 5th century B.C. had a tremendous impact on ancient Greece. After Athens and Sparta defeated the Persians they became enemies. They had a war called the Peloponnesian War which was a brutel 27-years. This war happened because Athens became more powerful and Sparta got jealous. This war was the end of the Golden age. Sparta eventually won by making the Athenians.
The Persian war in the late fifth century B.C. had a tremendous impact on Ancient Greece.The Athenian army was very small but they have won the Battle of the Marathon in 491-490 B.C.. If Athens lost the battle, the Greeks would eventually come under control of the Persians and all the culture and accomplishments of the Greeks would probably not have taken the form they did. The Government fell,trade dropped, and city states still fought each other. The Ionian Revolt was the first Persian war, it took place for about a decade from 499 B.C.-488 B.C.. It also forced the Greek city-states to unite and work together. The Greeks rebuilt Athens and entered into a period of great culture achievements. Since there was so many Persian wars and there was so many impacts it is hard to fit it into one paragraph.
ReplyDeleteIn the Persian War Athens and Spartens had to work together to defeat the Persians. After the Athens and Spartens defeated the Persains, Athens and Spartens started to fight and began to hate each other. When the to states began to fight they ended up in a war themselves. When the Persians attacked this put both Athens and Sparta in danger that is why these to city states came together, put aside their differences, and helped defeat the Persians so their loved ones could be safe. Athens and Sparta continued to hate each other, this changed history!
