“Tell the Spartans, stranger passing by, that here, obedient to their laws, we lie.”
480 B.C.: In a barren pass in a remote corner of eastern Greece, three hundred Spartan warriors faced the army of King Xerxes of Persia, a massive force rumored to be over a million strong.
Their orders were simple: to delay the enemy as long as possible, to buy time for the main Greek forces to mobilize. For six days the Spartans held the invaders back. In the final hours - with their shields shattered, their swords and spears wrecked - they fought with bare hands before being overwhelmed... It was a battle that would become synonymous with extraordinary courage, heroism, and self-sacrifice. It was the battle of Thermopylae.
