A. False, they fought together against Persia.B. True. Of several hundred Greek city-states, only thirty-one decided to resist the Persian army; these states were led by Sparta, Corinth, and Athens: the Greek League. Sparta was made leader of all land and sea operations. While the Spartans were principally responsible for the victory, the Athenian fleet was probably the most important component of that victory.C. False, the Greeks were victorious, and it was Xerxes who sent an army of some 150,000 men and a navy of 600 ships to the mainland of Greece.D. False, the majority of Greek city-states didn't turn to Sparta; they turned, rather, to Athens and the Athenian fleet. Also, Helots were class of unfree peasants in Spartan society--state-owned serfs. I doubt any greek citizens would want to be helots. Peace 🙂... Show More
