Explanation: The Greeks of antiquity often clashed with the nearby Persian Empire. But there was one enemy which Greeks would ally even with the Persians to stop - OTHER GREEKS!

It won't last. Spartans and Athenians are natural enemies! Like Persians and Greeks! Or Trojans and Greeks! Or Indians and Greeks! Or Greeks and other Greeks! Damn Greeks! They ruined Greece!
