Battle of Marathon 490 BC – How 10,000 Greeks Defeated the Persian Empire | Ancient History

The Battle of Marathon (490 BC) is one of the most legendary battles in ancient history. In this historic clash, a smaller Greek army from Athens defeated the powerful Persian Empire, protecting the early democracy of Athens and changing the course of Western civilization.

Outnumbered but highly disciplined, around 10,000 Greek hoplites faced a much larger Persian force on the plains of Marathon. Using brilliant strategy and the famous phalanx formation, the Greeks launched a surprise attack that shocked the Persian army and forced them to retreat.

This victory not only saved Athens but also inspired the legendary story behind the modern marathon race.
