I wouldn’t call 7,000 Greek allies a “small number” but your overall point stands. It was still a small force compared to that of Xerxes. A testament to the power of both courage and smart tactics
Greek Spartan combined forces numbered roughly 7,000, while the persians numbered between 120,000 and 300,000. The aftermath was a Persian victory, but they lost roughly 20,000 men against a much smaller force. A true testament to the warrior spirit of the spartans
