"His subject was the conflict we now call the ‘Peloponnesian War’, the great war between Athens and Sparta and their respective allies, which lasted from 431 to 404 BC (with a break in the middle) and ended with the defeat of Athens and the dissolution of the Athenian empire."

That's one long war.
@skells Not even sorry. This subject matter has already taken over my imagination. Going to be a long read, however. This is just in the introduction.
