The popular thing to do in the Greek world of the 490s BC was to revolt against the Persians
Having launched their revolt in the name of freedom, the Ionian "freedom fighters" soon discover that the Persian Empire has no intention of quietly accepting rebellion. Bernie and Dan follow the next stage of the conflict as the Great King's forces begin to recover the initiative and the fortunes of Aristagoras take an increasingly uncertain turn.
But the plucky rebels are putting up quite a fight. Can they pull it off?
We've got naval battles, biting horses, ambushes, and pull out your Fan of History bingo card because you might hear "Gyges".
