History

The Persians were men who had a vast warrior kingdom to the east. They were one of the sworn enemies of the Greeks, and fought with them on numerous occasions. While the armies of Persia were immense, a Spartan, according to legend, was worth five Persians in their own right. The most famous Greek-Persian conflicts were the Greco-Persian Wars, which occurred during the early decades of the 5th century B.C. The Battle at Thermopylae was one of the most famous battles in the Greco-Persian Wars. In this battle, around 300 Spartans, leading another 6,700 greeks, combined to a force of 7,000 greeks, battled a force of over 500,000 Persians, or so it has been told.

In God of War: Chains of Olympus

At one time, the Persians (led by the Persian King and aided by the Basilisk) invaded the Greek city of Attica. Kratos was then summoned by the Gods to aid in the defense of the city. Kratos fights against the soldiers, including swordsmen and archers. Eventually, he also kills the Persian king.
