Histories

Why is it so necessary for you to risk everything by fighting at sea? Do you not possess Athens [23.7333,37.9667] (Perseus)Athens, for which you set out on this march, and do you not have the rest of Greece [22,39] (nation), EuropeHellas? No one stands in your way. Those who opposed you have received what they deserved.
