History's Turning Points - (480 BC) The Battle of Salamis

"The Battle of Salamis was one of the most important battles in history. The victory by the Greeks under Themistocles insured that Xerxes would be forced to retreat to Persia. The battle would lay the foundation for an Athenian Empire that would come to be called the Delian League.

The aftermath of Salamis left the Athenians the greatest naval power in the Mediterranean."
