Who won the war between Sparta and the Greek coalition and Persia in the end?

The war between Sparta and the Greek coalition and Persia ended with a victory for the Greek city-state states and a defeat for Persia.

The war lasted for almost half a century and resulted in the survival of the Greek city-state states and institutions, while the Persian Empire never recovered.

The war had a far greater impact on the economies and cultures of the East and West than the war itself.

The three invasions of the Bosnian War were as follows:

First invasion:

The Persian Empire had long had ambitions of invading the west, so it decided to send troops to Greece on the pretext that Athens and Eretria had assisted Miletus. He first used diplomatic maneuvers to alienate the Greek city-states.

Then in the summer of 492 B.C., King Darius I of Persia sent 25,000 men from the land and naval **** across the Hellespont and along the Thracian coast to advance towards Greece, but his ships were destroyed by a hurricane at the Cape of Athos, and he was attacked by the Thracians on land, and was forced to retreat.

Second Invasion:

In the spring of 480 BC, the succeeding Persian king, Zechsius I (Xerxes I), again invaded Greece with an army of 250,000 men and 1,000 ships.

Athens, faced with the renewed Persian army, immediately entered into a state of readiness, with Themistokles as the commander-in-chief and Aristides as the vice-admiral to face the battle.

This time, Persia's million-strong army was so strong that all the Greek city-states felt that the survival of the city was at stake, so they allied themselves to fight against Persia, and even the city-state of Sparta also participated in the fight against Persia.

The third invasion:

In August 479, the Persian king sent a general with an army of 50,000 men to attack Greece again, and this time Themistocles once again used the trick of the empty city and moved to the sea.

And Sparta led the Peloponnesian coalition army*** of 30,000 to a decisive battle with the Persian army near Plataea (Battle of Plataea) and killed the Persian general, resulting in a great defeat for the Persian army, which had to withdraw to the east again. The third Persian expedition ended in failure.

End of the war:

In 478 BC, the Greek navy, led by Athens, counterattacked Persia and captured Sestos, a major town on the northern shore of the Hellespont Strait, thus taking control of the main road to the Black Sea. In the same year (i.e. 477 BC), Athens united with a group of Greek city-states to form a maritime alliance and captured the Thracian coastal region, many islands in the Aegean Sea and the strategic location of Byzantium.

In 449 BC, the Greek navy defeated the Persian army near the city of Salamis on the east coast of the island of Cyprus, whereupon both sides agreed to make peace. Athens sent its plenipotentiary Carias to the Persian capital Susa to negotiate and sign the Peace of Carias.

The Peace Treaty stipulated that Persia would give up control of the Aegean Sea and the Hellespont and Bosphorus Straits (the outlet of the Black Sea), and that it would recognize the independence of the Greek city-states on the west coast of Asia Minor. The Greco-Persian War was declared over.

Effects of the Hippocratic War:

The Hippocratic War was an unprecedented fusion of human history and culture, and its effects extended far beyond Persia and Greece. It greatly strengthened cultural exchanges between the East and the West, promoted the cultural development of the East and the West, and facilitated the progress of science and art. It broke the almost complete isolation between the East and the West, thus promoting the development and progress of human society. This is the most important impact of the Greek-Polish War.

Greece's victory in the Greek-Polish War made the historical center of the Western world move from the Two River Basin to the Mediterranean area, and the Greek civilization was preserved and flourished, becoming the foundation of Western civilization in the future.

The Greek victory also ensured the independence and security of the Greek city-states and allowed Greece to continue to dominate the Eastern Mediterranean for centuries.

Persia was defeated in this war, and its foreign expansion was thwarted, and it gradually declined and was finally destroyed by Alexander the Great of Macedonia.
