In this history documentary we continue our Avenging Leonidas series which covers the Second Greco Persian War. We began with the Battle of Thermopylae and the Aftermath of Thermopylae which opened the flood gates for the advance of the Persian Army into Greece that ultimately culminated in the sack of Athens. In our last episode we covered the climactic Battle of Salamis in which the massive navies of both sides clashed for the fate of the war.
Now we take a moment to appreciate the human stories which took place in the hours and days of battle. This includes seeing what defeat of an individual Trireme looked like before expanding this out to look at the defeat of an entire fleet. We then look at the Greek pursuit and rescue operations that followed. And finally we explore the debris strewn site of battle itself.
