Battle of Mantinea (362 BC) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (640 words)
The Battle of Mantinea was fought in 362 BC between the Thebans, led by Epaminondas and supported by the Arcadians and the Boeotians, and the Spartans, led by King Agesilaus II and supported by the Eleans, Athenians, and Mantineans.
After the battle of Leuctra in 371 BC had shattered the foundations of Spartan hegemony, there was an attempt by Thebes' chief politician and general Epaminondas to build a new hegemony centered on his city.
The ultimate result of the battle was to pave the way for the Macedonian conquest of Greece, by ensuring the weakness of both the Thebans and the Spartans.
