 | | (395 BC-86 BC), armed conflict between Corinth, Argos, Thebes, and Athens on one side and Sparta on the other. |
 | | Cyprus and the Greek city-states in Asia Minor were returned to Persia; the Athenians were forced to give up their conquests except Lemnos, Imbros, and Scyros; and the Greek city-states (except those in Asia Minor) were to be independent, thus eliminating combinations such as the Theban-dominated Boeotian League, which had fought against Sparta. |
 | | Sparta interpreted the terms of peace to justify interference in the Greek states, which eventually revolted against its domination, thus bringing about the Spartan defeat by Thebes at Leuctra in 371 BC Columbia Encyclopedia, Sixth Edition, Copyright (c) 2005. |
