Overview

When it comes to forming the new world and the events that changed modern history, people don't always consider the seriousness and the importance of historical events before the beginning of the new millennia.
It has to be accepted that the events during the ancient world, mainly because we don't have enough sources to evaluate them, have been disregarded and dismissed for a long time.
This article is here to raise awareness of battles that have been so legendary and historical that although they took place 2,000 years ago, they had a significant impact on today's world and the way events turned out.
Another critical point that has to be addressed before the beginning of the analysis is that this is a complete perspective and perspective of the writer.
Another important takeaway is that the actions are in chronological order, but this isn't grading them most to the least important.
The Battle of Thermopylae took place during one of the most destructive but essential wars of the ancient period; the Second Persian War. This was the second phase of the Greek-Persian wars, and after the people of Persia, under the auspices of Darius, lost to the Greeks, Xerxes came back to invade Greece and take revenge for the loss of his father.
Although the Persians had one of the most diverse militaries the world had ever seen, the Greeks were known for their ruthless spirit and the powerful unity between the alliance of Athenians, Spartans, Plebeians, and other smaller communities.
