300 Spartans: The Brutal Truth of the Battle of Thermopylae

Описание: The story of the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae is often told as a legend of heroism—but the real history is far more brutal.

In 480 BC, King Leonidas of Sparta and his small force stood against the massive army of Xerxes I of Persia at the narrow pass of Thermopylae. This was not a glorious fantasy battle. It was a calculated holding action, designed to delay the Persian advance at the cost of certain death.

This documentary reveals:

What really happened at Thermopylae beyond the legend

Why the Spartans chose death instead of retreat

Why Thermopylae still matters in military history

This was not about victory.
It was about time, sacrifice, and survival.
