## Resource

A failed expedition. A frightened tyrant. A restless Greek world under Persian rule. The Ionian Revolt did not begin with grand ideals, but with fear, ambition, and political chaos. Bernie and Dan begin a new multi-part series covering the revolt that would eventually draw Athens, Sparta, and Persia into generations of war. Along the way we're going to meet some amazing characters. In this one we meet the GRANDFATHER of History and a little girl who will one day be one of Sparta's most famous women. ** SUBSCRIBE TO OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL HERE!! ** https://www.youtube.com/@whatsnewinhistory This is a podcast by Dan Hörning and Bernie Maopolski.
