Xerxes I ( 519 - 465 B.C.), also known as Xerxes the Great, ruled Persia from 486 to 465 B.C. Xerxes is arguably most famous for his attempt to invade Greece. At the Battle of Thermopylae, Leonidas of Sparta fought Xerxes' much larger army but were eventually defeated. Although Xerxes marched further into Greece, he was forced to return to Persia due to an uprising. The Persian forces in Greece would then be driven out the next year.
