I’m very excited to present to you the Greco-Persian wars (5th century BC). In the next three episodes, we will cover 3 major military engagements. Today, we will start with the Battle of Marathon, (while the next episode will focus on the Battle of Thermopolis, followed by the incredible naval Battle of Salamis.
The Greco-Persian Wars were a series of conflicts between the Achaemenid Empire and Greek city-states beginning in 499 BC and lasting until 449 BC. It’s worth mentioning that the Greek city states were constantly at odds with one another, and the two main powers: Athens and Sparta, frequently fought small battles.

You go girl! I was born in DC and grew up in Baltimore and Richmond. Visited the Naval Academy many times. Ever thought of being an Admiral? Representative? Secretary? Of State.
Sorry I missed the premiere. A fun and informative video as always. Congratulations.
Alles sehr schön. Aber zuerst zusammen die Nummern 10 und 1. Eine empr.ONLINE Brünette und eine anderez Blondine. Es wäre unfair, wenn ich 4 wählen würde
When I see the ancient greek army, that reminds me of the movie 300 release in 2006.
Awesome video, nice to see a different approach to history battle videos that don’t seem so uptight and melodramatic. Kind of making me want to try a hand in it myself 😊
Keep it up! New subscriber and definitely excited to see this channel grow
Just found your channel wanted to say I love they easy way you make things plain as some people drown the story with minutiae? New sub from me
I’m just here to say, the frog with the boxing gloves is the cutest thing I’ve ever seen.
PS awesome video, once again teaching me more than my high school world history course… Keep them coming!
The numbers of the persian army is incorrect of course as usual
Bravo. Another excellent video
Great video, as per usual
That was very well done
Excellent video Emilia! I have not read much about this battle. The details on military tactics devised by Miltiades, and implemented by the Greeks, was fascinating.
Nice video! I see sand table in the movie. Had that been invented then?
great content! keep up the work
Great job as usual Emilia 👏
Greece states refuse to help due to dispute about Field Commander of the whole army. Spartan want to be the commander but the battle is in Athenian land. In the end with Athenian victories bring them lot of political power over other states. Greco Persian war is very interesting due to political instabilities of Greece manage to defeat a major powerhouse of Persian Empire.
THIS IS SPARTA! It would be neat if you could dress in period costume. Thx Emilia.
