It is apparent that the objective of the Iroquois was to socially bond and gradually diffuse their cultures to those in the North American region. However, the Delian League had an isolationist perspective, with the goals of resisting foreign pressures and protecting those admitted into the league. The background leading up the formation of the league composed of political struggles between the Greeks and Persians. The Delian League, founded in 478 BC, was an association of Greek city-states under the leadership of Athens. However, a series of Greek revolutions against Persian rule led to further Persian attacks across the land, most notably Xerxes’ second Persian invasion of Greece in 480 BC, taking an enormous army and navy to Greece, letting all of Greece except the Peloponnesus thus having fallen into Persian hands. However, Greece defeated the Persian invasion force in the following year, ending the invasion and the threat to Greece, and hence boosting Greek nationalism and hence the desire to create a

Let's explore the factors that led to the eventual fall of one of history’s most powerful and influential empires. From about 50 BCE until the year 200 CE, the Roman Empire was the superpower of the Mediterranean world. During that time, the empire’s wealth,territory and international status grew and grew.But even as the empire prospered,it was slowly starting to fall.In this essay I will be telling how Rome fell,and i believe that rome fell because of a weak government,natural disasters and foreign invasion.

The besiegement of Thasos revealed Athens' true motivations behind the League and the future plans for her allies. According to _Ancient Greece Using Sources_ Thasos was one of the largest and richest members of the Delian League, and a conflict broke out between Athens and Thasos over the gold mining on the island. Thasos then attempted to withdraw from the League, as the Persians were no longer a threat in the Aegean, and Athens was demanding too much for too little in return.

The Delian League was an establishment formed in 478 BC. A large number of Greek cities formed an alliance under this league and together aimed to provide a strong defence against Persia, under the

Once Sparta created his own rival league, the Peloponnesian League, feelings of jealousy accumulated towards the people of Athens and those feelings increased with competitive notions for power. Then when Athens attacked an ally of Sparta’s Peloponnesian League, Sparta decided

The Athenian Empire was a more voluntary alliance of city-states that were impressed by the Athenian Navy's prowess in the Persian War and were willing to pay for its protection. Athens used this revenue to further improve its navy, as well as improve its own infrastructure and defenses. Included in these improvements was the construction of large walls around the city and down to the port at Piraeus, home of the Athenian Navy.

Athens had reached its glory in its Golden Age for over fifty years, but its decline had come eventually. One circumstance that led to the end of the Athenian Golden Age was the continued the wars between Athens and Greek city-states, especially with its long-time rival—Sparta after the Peloponnesian Wars, which had weakened the Athens political and economic foundation and also caused increasing social instability. When Athens was the leader of the Delian League, it used its military power to subdue the other small poleis under its control, which has raised serious resentment from the city-states. After the Peloponnesian Wars, many small Athenian subjects had joined Sparta, unfortunately, these democratic city-states while they were under the Athens’ control had been enforced to adapt to Oligarchies.

The Peloponnesian War was the turning point in Athenian hegemony in Ancient Greece. It was fought in 431 B.C. between the Delian League, led by Athens, and the Peloponnesian League led by Sparta. According to Thucydides, Athens’ imposing hegemonic status and its overwhelming quest for more power made the Peloponnesian War and Athens’s eventual fall from power inevitable. Despite the Athenians having a far more superior navy and being considerably wealthier, they were defeated and made subjects of Sparta. In this paper, I will discuss Thucydides’ and Socrates’ reasons for why

The Athenian Golden Age was a short time period of about fifty years where Athens became a key cultural center point for Ancient Greece. The arts, philosophy, democracy as well as other areas gained ground in this era. This age started when a victory was achieved against Persia, and when Athens formed the Delian League. As the war had been won, and an agreement was struck among some of the Greek city-states to form a navy, the peace and funds Athens received quickly resulted in a period of advancement in many areas. This period did

After Athens’ defeat, there was a time of intense rivalry among the Greek cities. These Greek cities were seeking to gain leadership and control of the others. The three main Greek cities were Sparta, a recovered Athens, and Thebes. These three Greek cities were unable to attain control, or hegemony, over the Greek cities for a various array of reasons. The Athenians had created a new confederation, whose aim was to resist Spartan aggression in 378 B.C.E. This new constitution avoided the abuse of the Delian League, however, the Athenians soon repeated their old ways.

All of these civilizations came and went at different times throughout the duration of Bronze Age Greece. All of them were drastically important in maintaining the great power of the area during a time of such havoc and turmoil. Much like anything in life, all good things must come to an end eventually. The Bronze Age Greece almost completely fell by 146BC. There are a number of different reasons why the collapse of the Bronze Age Greece occurred. In the following sections we will discuss several reasons for the collapse of this once great society.

In the early fifth century BC, Greece consisted of many city-states allied in various factions or leagues. The alliances between these cities are difficult to understand. The alliances created a patchwork where

The Greeks closest to the Persian Empire after the war created the Delian League to protect them from the Persians. The Greeks chose the Athenians to lead them. The Spartans were originally asked to lead them, but the kind was very arrogant, so they retracted their offer. The Spartans then created the Peloponnesian League because they didn’t think the Athenians should lead the Delian League because they were getting too much credit for defeating the Persians in the war. The two leagues didn’t get along at all. This rivalry eventually turned into the Peloponnesian War. This war went on for about 30 years. After the war, the government changed in Athens.

     The ancient Greek and Roman civilizations of Europe began to progress toward a more civilized order of society. As there were no previous establishment to base their ideals on, it was understandable that there were some difficulties in their progression as a society. Although the ancient Greek and Roman governments fell, both had similar paths of creation, conquest, and destruction.
