In the early 5th century BC, an epic clash between the Persian Empire and the Greeks stands as the point where much of what will become “Western” culture hangs in the balance. Two battles in particular, Thermopylae and Salamis are pivotal in the Greek military victory over invading Persian forces, but also are influential in the development of what Greece, and ultimately, the West would become.
