 | | After the collapse of Mycenaean society around the 1100s BC, Dorians from Macedonia invaded Greece and moved into the fertile areas of the Peloponnesus, Crete, and southwestern Asia Minor. |
 | | After the Messenians revolted around 630 BC, the second Messenian war took place in which the Spartans were fighting an enemy that outnumbered them by nearly 10 to 1. |
 | | After the Six Day War in 1967, the whole of Palestine was occupied by Israel, and the number of people driven from their homeland increased to 1,500,000. |
