More Description(Former Title: The First War for the West)3-DVD Set (PAL), all narrated by Patrick Frost and Hosted by Dr. Michael C. Scott of Cambridge University. The Greco Persian War has given us some of the most iconic moments in history such as Leonidas and the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae, the Marathon Run and a huge legacy today (i.e., 9/11) in politics and many other areas. However, other than the 3 days of the 300 Spartans at Thermopylae, the rest of the 49 year war between Persia and Greece has been almost completely overlooked, and has never appeared in full as a documentary or drama. This TV docu-drama series (of eight 44 minute episodes) corrects that. It covers the full story from the Ionian Revolt (497BC) to the Peace of Callias (449BC) also known as the Peace of Kimon, and includes a detailed introduction, the birth of Democracy and the aftermath and the legacy of the period. The first democracy in the world spawned a war 2500 years ago that shaped most of the world today (i.e., 9/11), particularly our politics, but it also gave us some of the most iconic moments and curious mysteries in history, a time when history really did become legend.
