A war 431-404 BCE between the cities and their allies which wrecked most of the Greek world. Athens lost its empire and dominance, Sparta became the leading power for 30 years until overturned by Thebes.
The weakening and instability gave a free ride to Persian influence over Greece, but subsequently opened the way for Macedonia to dominate Greece, and finally mount a campaign to destroy the Persian empire.

Athens' leader Pericles for one said thait Athens' long tradition of free thought and debate should be an example for all of Greece.
