- Both parts of the 300 Spartans mini-series.
After their defeat at Marathon, the Persians prepared for retaliation against the Greeks.
Their second invasion was at a scale, unlike anything the ancient world had ever seen.
King Leonidas of Sparta together with an elite band of 300 hoplites and a few thousand Greeks attempted to check the invasion at a small pass called "Thermopyles".

Please do on troy
For the algorithm!
For the Omnissiah!
Why did the animation get so much better all of a sudden?
my old friend
the runner Pheidippides is often overlooked for his achievements....first he ran to sparta to ask them to join athens in battle and then ran back[240km in 2 days] and then he grabbed his armour and ran to the athenien camp [40km], fought in the battle and then he ran back to athens [40km] where there he dies of exhaustion :)
A very important man indeed.
Except that's not a true story right?
@@BenJover Probably over-exaggerated, but there's always a little truth in it. So he must've ran... a lot
@@MostlySatirical I thought it was a fabrication created later lol
@@BenJover Who knows, I ain't from the 400s BC lol

For the algorithm!
For Sparta!
The algorithm loves interaction.
Especially when it is compounding.
Therfore I wil be engagingly engaging in engagement.
Criminaly underrated
I already watched both parts, but I'm going to watch them again as tribute to the algorythm.
Me too!
I just love this video, Thank you so.

Bless the algorithm my man
Hopefully, we are going from cursed to blessed!
Haha!
Well Time for a rewatch, amazing as always HEB!
Love going back to older videos amazing job hehe
I obviously watched this already, but I'll let it run in the background to appease the algorithm.
Wow such a nice video brother. Your editing skills are so much stunning I really appreciate your hard work. The quality of your video tempts me to leave an appreciative comment on your comment Box. Please keep it up this type of work. And first comment
important to note that while the Spartans and Thebans were fighting Athens was evacuating, and preparing their navy, and a storm destroyed parts of the Persian navy, which would lead to the victory at salamis, and then the combined greek force at Platea when Xerses fleet was gone.
The Persian numbers to me were so mind-boggling to me growing up.... Then I learned about ancient China and was surprised to learn that armies of 100k-250k were the NORM back then, especially during their Warring states period and carrying forward... China was DEEP even back then, which is so insane to me since the story of the Spartans and their allies fighting such a huge force of Persians was the only event I'd heard of with such numbers growing up... The ancient world was nuts! Imagine all us keyboard warriors of today... We'd all have to be marching to battle back then
Like the men from ukraine do now.
The number of warriors in china warring state may be exaggerate.
Giving the population at that time it is impossible to field as many as 400,000 or 600.000 without taxing the logistic.
Great video, glad to see u uploading after a while
The story of Leonidas and his brave 300. Feat 700 Thespians.
great vid, deserves a lot more views
Well done,you've more accurately stuck to the words of Herodotus than most other accounts I've seen. 😁👍
Wow, thanks!

Just signed up on Patreon. I don't like Patreon but will make an exception for you. Great work!
Thank you kindly!
Be sure that your generosity is more than appreciated.
This makes me happy.
Thank you.
That first day of battle the Persian bows were almost useless due to rain damaging the strings and the composite bows themselves
great video: the feet are a bit trippy though
A spartan king was to be killed in the prophecy. Sparta had two kings
And thus, fear for the spartans grew in the persians hearts.... and that was shown at platea.
There is a rumor that the 300 weren't spartans but albanians dressed like spartans!
Leonidas would walk into legendary status
what u mean? he's already legendary along with his 300 spartans but not the thebans who were with them cause they surrendered right away.
👍
Herodotus tells us that the Spartans were asked for Earth and water but threw the messengers down a well.
With slowmo kick
King Testicles! That's pronounced (Test•Tik•Leez) 😄
Overall, I'd rate this presentation a B minus. The research appears to have been well done, the computer generated graphics entertaining and pleasing enough, although at times I found them to be a distraction. Where the endeavor suffers is in the narration, which is the same fault I found with with the episodes featuring the battles of Salamis & Plataea. The delivery is hurried and the diction compromised by foreign accents intermittently making the narrators difficult to understand!
Topographical features could use labeling. Of course, there's not a great need for it in this presentation; the battle at Thermopylae took place in a small, confined space. However, the locations referred to in the episodes of Salamis and Plataea were wide-ranging, yet they aren't identified on the maps. If these presentations are meant to be informative, I recommend a pedagogical approach be applied to their production.
🤩👍
Is this an assasins creed odyssey new dlc? 😆
Beautiful video! But the narrator is just subpar. I'm sorry i don't want to be rude but the intonation is very weird
10000 of Armenians? As a historian, I can assure you that there weren't modern Armenians and Syrians back then. And Armenia and Syria founded as regions during the Roman reign. But if you want to add North Koreans and Russians to the real/ancient Persian "empire" army, then it's your choice, not history.
As a "Historian", you should read Herodotus.
Forever rome!
I am very doubtful the Persians suffered more casualties than the Greeks at this battle.
Could there be a smoother, less menacing Narrator? This voice turns me off.
🤔😂🤣Right
The entire story about the 300 Spartans is nothing else but a fairy tale told as an “undeniable historical truth” :) Before being scandalized by my opinion let’s ask some questions: is there any contemporary non-Greek source (Persian, Egyptian, Phoenician, Jewish or Etruscan), which confirms this story? No? Not even 1? All right then: is there any contemporary Greek source about the Battle of Thermopylae? Only 1 - Aeschylus mentions it briefly in his tragedy “The Persians”. It seems the battle didn’t impress much the people living at that time. The ancient Greeks were creating poems, songs and plays mostly about the Mycenaean and about the Minoan age. From their point of view, those were the most glorious times, which deserved to be memorized. Well, which is the first source that tells about the 300 Spartans in such case? 2 generations later “the father of the history” Herodotus creates this legend. Many of his claims (about the Thracians for example) are proven to be wrong by the archaeologists. So the modern historians are very skeptical and don’t trust him as a reliable source. Herodotus himself was inspired by Homer so it seems he was just trying to create a contemporary patriotic version of “The Iliad”. Sometimes some gods appear to help the Greeks in his “Histories” :) In other cases mythical heroes as Heracles or Theseus raise from the dead to fight against the Persians. During the Battle of Thermopylae itself both sides begin to fight for the corpse of Leonidas (a direct copy of the fight for the body of Achilles from the Iliad). All of that is very hard to be believed but of course, the tale that 300 Spartans were fighting against hundreds of thousands (or even millions) of Persians is an “undeniable fact” :) Centuries later, there are other Greek and Latin sources, which practically repeat the version of Herodotus. Now, let’s conclude what is actually undeniable: 1) Most probably, there was a battle at Thermopylae between the ancient Greeks and Persians. 2) If there was such a battle, it was won by the Persians. 3) The battle itself didn’t impress very much the people living at that time (not even the Greeks themselves). 4) Sometime later, a monument dedicated to the victims of the battle was built on the same place. 5) Even if the Persians did win some of the battles, their 2 campaigns in Greece were not more successful than the Caesar’s campaigns in Britain. After all, it was hard for them to transport people and supplies at such long distances especially, if their fleet was destroyed by the windstorms. So for me personally, the tale about the 300 Spartans doesn’t make more sense than the tale about King Arthur and his knights or about Dracula the vampire ;)
Half the information about Thermoplyae is from persians themselves including the 20k casualties. Keep crying those salty persian tears no one cares about your coping mechanism.
Bertrand deveraux, Stephan hodkinson and reul kolijendik have debunked the spartan myth. Thermopylae did happen but it is far from the myths created about it by spartan propagandists.
Good Ancient Greek propaganda
Mind your business with the regime you have in Iran...You should be ashamed...Even your people who live outside hate your practices...
@@spyz1448 what?
I think the Greek s invaded Persia And mass Migrated towards wat is now middel east king leonidas doesnt died he was injured butt Survive And the Greek s take over the middel east
Yes the city would be staved
i think marathon happened a couple years later , i believe the Persians took Greece and the populace had escaped to Sicily i think . The Persians were defeated at sea and then later retreated back to Persia due to desease or something else . Anyway i always heard he ran from the battlefield to Athens 26 km and then died. lol you skew $#it good tho lol
