300 Spartans vs 100,000 Persians — The Last Stand at Thermopylae.Added:
THIS IS WHERE WE FIGHT. THIS IS WHERE WE DIE.
IN 480 BC, one of the most legendary last stands in history took place at the Battle of Thermopylae.
An army as large as an empire was coming.
The mighty forces of Xerxes the first, king of Persia, marched into Greece with an army so large ancient writers claimed it stretched for miles.
City after city fell.
Fear spread across Greece.
But one man refused to kneel.
His name was Leonidas the first.
Instead of retreating, he did something unthinkable.
