I want a broad question coz then its so easy to write a lot. For example if its something like "Explain to what extent the Athenian navy was responsible for the victory of the Greeks in 480-479 BC", then its so easy to make points on navy, leadership, tactics, unity etc.

Yeah thats the best case scenario, hopefully they give us something like that. Are you studying the athenian empire? I'm banking on them giving a good question for the Persian wars so I haven't touched it ever since I did it last year lmao

I've gone over how Athens was able to control the Delian league which led to it's transformation into the Athenian empire overtime. But still like you said I would much prefer a good question on the Persian wars.

The Battle of Marathon was a HOAX. Sleepy Darius couldn't kill a fly. Some little man didn't run all that way to Sparta
