 One of the many events that led to the pellapenesian wars was the attack of the Persians.  After the Greeks led by the Spartans drove off the Persians the Spartans led the Pelonnesian league.  Later when a Athenian leader took over they took power.  When the Athenians rose in power the Spartans backed away.  The athenians then instigated the Spartans to war by attacking cities friendly to Sparta.
