Which was the most significant result of the peloponnesian war? (points : 5) the greek city-states began to merge into a single greek culture. sparta became the ancient world's greatest democracy. the persians greatly expanded their empire into greece. athens lost its empire and influence as a model of democracy.

The correct option is (d) Athens lost its empire and influence as a model of democracy.

Athens was situated at the central point of Greek Civilization and was the seat of ancient Greek culture, learning, and politics. The other Greek city-states looked up to Athens for her leadership in bringing about a union of the Greek city-states. Often considered to be the seat of modern democratic institutions, Athens’ democracy was not an actual democracy, but an oligarchy, in which the voting rights were limited to the highest echelons of the society.  

Further Explanation:

The common man in Athens lived a prosperous life, and his well being and prosperity was carefully protected by a well crafted judicial system. Education was accessible to almost everyone in Athens, which also made great strides in architecture and building technology, thereby allowing the rich elite to build imposing mansions, palaces, and structures. They also built temples dedicated to the Greek Gods, transforming Athens into the greatest centre of Greek knowledge and power.  

The Greek city-states were all independent kingdoms, each having their own military and political structures. While they all shared a common culture with each other, they were often engaged in territorial warfare against each other. The other city-states, especially Sparta, wanted to capture Athens’ resources and control her naval commercial routes. Athenian troops could not outmaneuver the military capabilities of the Spartan troops and her allies, and thereby submitted to the kingdom of Sparta. Her political structures were systematically destroyed by the Spartan armies, and replaced with a monarchical hegemony. The devastations of the Peloponnesian War severely damaged the Athenian monopoly and hegemony over Greek culture, and it could not be rebuilt.
