In the history of the battles Thermopylae was one of the bravest ever. Xerxes gathered an army of 1.000.000 men to revenge teh memory of his father. He headed to Athens but in his way were 300 Spartans, 700 Thespians and 400 Theban, led by Leonidas. The Greeks choose a narrow coastal channel in where they were able to resist during 3 days, until Ephialtes betrayed them showing a path that went to the back of the Greeks. The defeat was a heroic display that allowed the Athenians to prepare for the next and almost ultimate battle.
