The Persian Wars
The Persian Wars were a series of epic battles between the Achaemenid Empire of Persia and the free city-states of the Hellenic world that started in 499 BC and lasted until 449 BC. The independence wars against the overpowering might of the empire of the Persians began when Cyrus the Great conquered Ionia in 547 BC. Struggling to rule the independent-minded cities of Ionia, the Persians appointed tyrants to rule each of them.
