This is the battle of Marathon and it is one of the famous battles fought by the Greeks, this battle is about the Persians invading Greece. The Persians brought their enormous navy to invade but the Greeks did not worry for they had the mighty Spartans on their side. But the Persians also brought many archers with them,but the Greeks still won a stunning victory.    



                                  This another famous battle fought by Greeks and Persians, but the Greeks had the upper hand because the Persians are invading the Greeks land. The Greeks knew most of the land so they could attack from anywhere, well not anywhere because the Persians had an enormous navy and if the Greeks tried to attack by sea they would probably lose. The Persians out numbered the Greeks but the Greeks won another victory with the help of the mighty Spartans.                





                           This is the battle of Salamis and the Greeks won by ramming into the Persian ships. The Greeks tricked the Persians into a narrow passageway and the Greeks were waiting at the end of this passage. when the Persians were close enough to attack the Greeks rammed into them by surprise, and some of the Greek ships came through the passageway  to cut of the Persians escape.  





                                       This is the battle of Plataea and this battle is when the Greeks trapped most of the Persian army in their own fort. after the were running low on supplies, the Persians tried to scare the Greeks away by attacking. It did not work, the Greeks simply fought them until the Persians had very few men and then the Greeks trapped the Persians in their fort. The Greeks then killed all the Persians in the fort.









                                      I was on one of these ships while I was still looking for some were good to settle, and that is when I was attacked by pirates. I defeated the pirate's captain and the owner gave the ship as a reward because he was actually an under cover soldier looking for this very pirate. After that I was finally able to set sail and continue my search for a good spot for my wife and I to settle down.  







                                     I was trained to use one of these and I have become such a great swordsman I am now a teacher. I named my sword back stabber because I was also trained to be an assassin so I guess you know why I call it back stabber. After the war I was aloud to keep back stabber and lucky I was, because not long after someone attacked me. But he did not stand a chance because my sword was so sharp it cut right through his armor. 








               This was my body armor and it saved my life a couple of times when things went wrong. One time some guy threw a spear at me and would have went right through if my armor was not there. The spear hit me and bounced off the armor and that day I was promoted to general.    


                    










                
I used a spear like this to defeat a famous commander and a lot of Persian soldiers. This spear is also the spear that almost killed my friend Artemis, she was doing her morning shift look out when out of nowhere a spear came flying at her face. Luckily she moved just in time, but she still has a three inch scare on her left arm.

   





                                                                                               My friend had one of these and he was an excellent archer. I was also trained to use one of these but I would rather be in the front fighting. I am a general so I sort of have to be in the front commanding and fighting at the same time.

         



 This is my shield and it saved my life at least a hundred times or more. It also saved my friend's life when some one started shooting arrows at us. Artemis lost her shield so I had to help her because I was the closest.
