SynopsisAfter the defeat of the Persians in the early fifth century BC, Athens became one of the most prosperous of the Greek city-states, and under the leadership of Pericles it entered a golden age of art, poetry, and architecture. Its imperial ambitions, however, undermined democracy as it came to dominate much of Greece, until the Spartans conquered the city.
