Trivia #018

.

Did you know...

... that today is the anniversary of Thermopylae? In 480 B.C., an overwhelming Persian force finally defeated a force of 300 Spartans at the narrow pass of Thermopylae in Greece. This battle delayed the Persians enough that they failed in their efforts to conquer Greece.
