It's 10 years after the battle of Marathon. Xerxes, King of Kings, prepares an unimaginable force to teach the Greeks a lesson once and for all. The stakes of history hinge on two incredibly important battles: the battle of Thermopylae and the battle of Salamis. The culmination of the second Greco Persian war.
Western civilisation is founded on Greeks values of democracy and freedom (or so we think). If Xerxes brakes through and conquers Greece, our entire existence would have changed (or would it?).
