As a result, the Peloponnesian War was concluded. It would be another decade of warfare before the Spartan general Lysander defeated the Athenian fleet at Aegospotami. Learning from its past experiences with the Athenian navy, they established a fleet of warships. Hostilities resumed between Athens and Sparta with an assault launched by the Athenians at Sicily. The treaty stated that Athens and Sparta would defend each other for the next 50 years. The agreement was made official with the signing of the Peace of Nicias. Instead, the Athenians used their navy to deliver troops into the Spartan territory to conduct raids on settlements.Īfter years of open warfare, Sparta offered peace and Athens accepted. The walls helped protect Athens from direct assault, and its leader, Pericles, urged Athens not to engage in direct land battles with the Spartans. The Athenians had built walls stretching from their seaport to the city of Athens. The Spartan army began by raiding lands within an Athenian allied territory, particularly a region near Athens called Attica. This eventually drew Sparta into the conflict. As a Spartan ally, Corinth resumed hostilities toward Athens when Athens threatened Corinth’s interests in the region surrounding Corcyra.
