Debate & Declaration of War (13 Jul 432 Jahr v. Chr. – 1 Jan 431 Jahr v. Chr.)

Beschreibung:

Both the Peloponnesian league (Sparta & Corinth) & Delian League (Athens) had reasons of war against each other.

Corinth: Athens openly attacked their colony & aided its enemies.

Athens: Corinth & other outside forces openly supported a revolt of an 'allied' city.

However open conflict between both leagues was yet declared. What followed was a peloponnesian assembly discussing on whether the peace treaty between Athens & the Peloponnese was broken.

after the Peloponnese debate - Athenian delegations arrived & had their say.

The spartans voted that the treaty had been broken and that war should be declared - not because of allied demand but rather due to their own fear of Athenian growth & rivalry.
