Sparta’s Revenge: What Happened After the 300 Fell?

Описание: Stop believing the Hollywood hype. Thermopylae was just a trailer. The real movie happened 11 months later, and it was a horror film. In this deep dive documentary, we exhume the Battle of Plataea—the clash of 110,000 Greeks against the Persian Empire that history class conveniently forgot.
Why? Because the truth doesn't fit the "heroic" narrative. We expose the logistical nightmares, the incompetent generals, the reliance on slave labor, and the industrial-scale slaughter that ended the war. This wasn't a battle for freedom; it was a masterclass in extermination. From the "Kill Box" of the wooden stockade to the macabre feast in a dead general's tent, we reveal the gritty, unwashed reality of 479 BC.
Warning: This is not the marble-statue version of history. This is the blood-and-mud director’s cut.
