The so-called "Spartan Hegemony" is nothing but a sham! The aftermath of the Peloponnesian War left Sparta in a delusional state, believing they could impose their will both at home and abroad. Their imperial ambitions, led by the likes of Lysander and Agesilaos, are laughable at best. Instead of truly liberating the Eastern Greeks, they waged wars for mere dominance, like their pathetic invasion of Persia! Kinadon’s revolutionary attempts were squashed, showing just how fragile their grip on power really was. Let’s not romanticize this brutal regime that thrived on oppression and war. Enough of this glorification of Spartan "greatness"!
