Athens, along with Eretria, supported rebellions by Ionian cities in Persian territory in Asia Minor. Persia determined to stop this by installing a puppet Athenian tyrant in Athens, and sent an expeditionary force in 490 to enforce this.
The expedition was defeated at Marathon.

∙ 7y agoIn 499 BCE the Greek tyrant of Miletus decided that the island of Naxos was ripe for the picking and persuaded the Persian governor located in Sardis to join in. The expedition failed and, knowing his head was on the block, persuaded the other Ionian Greek cities to revolt. It took the Persians six years to put it down, but in the early stages Eretria and Athens from mainland Greece joined in to help the rebels and this spread the fighting to the Greek mainland after Ionians were put down.
