Battle of Thermopylae

WALT: Write an information report
Battle of Thermopylae

Sparta was part of ancient Greece. Sparta was more reckless than any other place in the world they would rather die than be slaves.
The Battle of Thermopylae was fought between all of Greek city states lead by king Leonidas of Sparta and the Persian army of Xerxes. Over the course of three days.

The Spartan army was the first to stay as a group when in war. In The Battle of Thermopylae which had 7,000 Spartans up against 1,000,000 Persians.

Spartans would fight together and everyone knew what to do and they would jab there spears at the same time. The could fight in any terrain from a shipwreck in the ocean from a snowy mountain top.

The Persians had Elephants weighing 5 times as much as a modern Indian Elephant at least we think.

In the end the Persians won from out numbering Sparta but some of Greece was not controlled for there was nothing of interest...Yet.
