Best Answer

The war was between Athens and Sparta, city-states of ancient Greece. Athens and Sparta engaged in a long and costly struggle, the Peloponnesian war (431-404 BC) and the more martial society, Sparta, eventually triumphed. (Sparta's victory provides a warning that, in a struggle between autocracy and democracy, democratic peoples cannot assume that freedom will triumph.)
