The Peloponnesian War is over ----Sparta wins!!!
But at what cost?
![Page 23: Peloponnesian Wars And the rise of Alexander the Great](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022032702/56649cf45503460f949c28e5/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Sparta was in control, but eventually city-states get resentful and attack Sparta.
Greece is weakened by constant war between city-states.
Ripe for outside invasion.
Philip II of Macedonia ------- attacks Athens with his very powerful army.

They fought as a phalanx (FAY-langks) which was a group of soldiers who stood close in a square. As one was killed, another took his place. They had very long spears.
