The year is 420 BC. The Spartan army has been sitting
outside Athens for the last 10 years except for one year when they had a truce. Nicias of
Athens has now arranged another truce, supposed to last for 50 years. Everyone is allowed
to go home. Athens keeps its land, and Sparta gets to keep all the land it had won in
battle.
Not everybody welcomes this, especially Alcibiades who has just been elected STRATEGOS by
the Athenians. Alcibiades becomes a real hero when he wins the Chariot racing at the
Olympic Games.
Sparcus
and his family have seen many changes! But the Spartans themselves have NOT changed.
