"After Thermopylae, Athens was conquered, and the Athenians and Spartans were driven back to their last line of defense at the Isthmus of Corinth and in the Saronic Gulf."
The reason the persians left Greece was because a revolt in Babylon.
"Due to unrest in Babylon, Xerxes was forced to send his army home to prevent a revolt, leaving behind an army in Greece under Mardonius, who was defeated the following year at Plataea in 479 BC. "
Edit : Also if you read the aftermath you refrenced is says that the persians sacked athens and controlled all of greece. Just a historical fact. You didn't think that the film was true did you? It was semi-based on history, not really true.
Time to Work !

Kwaad used to irk me. Now I just feel sorry for the guy. I remember when I was so delusional and attached so blindly to one company. Of course I was a teenager then and I know better now.
Killzone 2 was impressive very impressive, since this thread isnt about 300, sony just killed them with killzone 2, I cant believe that was even gameplay. The demo coming to psn later on today, but I cant help to the fact that microsoft did shit on e3 why dont sony fans make it HOW MICROSOFT EMBARRESED THEMSELVES IN E3, for revenge on how xbox fans said sony embarresed themselves last year just because of the $599.99 price tag.
Well to be fair there wasn't really anything negative about MS's conference, just nothing much positive.
