In 520 BC, the newfound Athenian democracy was threatened by Persian Darius.
Further Explanations:
Athens and Sparta were Greeks who gathered together to combat Persia which was the most dominant realm of that era, that extended from Egypt to India. A Democratic system of government was practiced by the Athenians in which citizens were allowed to participate in the decisions of the government. Their democracy was threatened by the Persian Darius during 520 BC. The Athenians were attacked numerous times. The last and final battle they fought was the Battle of salamis in which the Athenians compelled Persian to flee back. Â
In Battle of Salamis Persians marched on to Greece to annex it but found it abandoned. The Athenians were waiting off the coast of Island of salamis to attack them.  They confronted Persian with their ships “triremes”, which were wild and portable .They knocked against the side of the Persian ships and immersed them, forcing Persian soldiers to abscond back to Persia.
