A Cultural Convulsion

from Dave Does History Hosted by Dave Bowman

On this episode of Dave Does History, we journey back to April 25, 404 BCE—the day the mighty city of Athens fell and the Peloponnesian War came to a crushing end. After nearly thirty years of conflict, starvation, and political chaos, Sparta stood triumphant and Athens bowed to a brutal new order. We will explore the final moves of the war, the rise of Lysander, and the long-term fallout for Greece and the Western world. It is a story of glory lost, ideals tested, and the haunting echo of flutes as the walls came down. Tune in now on iHeart, iTunes, or Spotify.
