The Persian Wars, or Persian Wars for short, are the attempts made in the early 5th century BC by the Persian kings Darius I and Xerxes I to annex Greece to their empire by force. However, despite enormous Persian superiority, these undertakings failed when some 30 poleis led by Athens and Sparta decided to resist. The Persian Wars were triggered by the so-called Ionian Revolt (500/499 to 494 BC). The highlights of the Persian Wars were the battle of Marathon (490 BC) in the first Persian War, the naval battle of Salamis (480 BC) and the battle of Plataiai (479 BC) in the second Persian War. The defeat of the Persians had far-reaching effects on further Persian, Greek and ultimately European history. The most important contemporary source for the events is the ancient historian Herodotus. - Wikipedia -
