This starts a small war between the Athenian Democrats and the Peloponnesian League • Cleisthenes takes power in the city-state of Athens and institutes reforms that lead historians to consider him the father of democracy. • Athenians send an embassy to the Achaemenid satrap of Asia Minor - in the capital city of Sardis - for help in defending against Spartan threats, but refuse to accept Persian terms, which demanded the return of Hippias' tyranny. ==Births==
