At this time, Greece was still a city-state (i.e., a city as a kingdom, each with its own king's alliance), and due to lack of preparation, the alliance was loose, and almost most of the Greek city-states surrendered, leaving only the most powerful Athens and Sparta. The Persian envoys came to Sparta to tell the king Leonidas that they only needed "water" and "earth" (meaning to make them surrender), but the messengers were pushed down the abyss, so Xerxes was angry and prepared to personally attack Athens and Sparta.
In order to buy time for the Greek coalition to prepare for war, it was necessary to send a death squad to stop the Persian army, and this responsibility fell to Sparta, in order to recruit the daredevils, King Leonidas decided to go to the death row prison to find someone, he told the death row prisoners: "Will you die here for nothing, or will you go with me to fight the Persians until you die, defend the country, and regain your dignity!?" Of course, all the condemned prisoners shouted that they were willing to fight, and there were more than 1,700 people in total, but these people were heinous after all, and it was a great risk to let them go to the king.
They agreed to assemble in the square after saying goodbye to their families and packing their bags, but the next day there were only 299 people in the square, and unfortunately it was too late to find anyone else, so King Leonidas had no choice but to lead the team himself, which made up 300 warriors (instead of 250 or 380).

It was the festival of Cania, and according to the laws of Sparta, any military operations had to be stopped, which was one of the reasons why there were not so many troops; On the other hand, the navy of the Greek alliance also resisted the navy of Persia at sea ([300 Warriors: Rise of the Empire] plot).
- The following is from the encyclopedia:
On the part of the Greek army: about 7,000 men in total (according to Herodotus).
299 Spartan Royal Guards - plus King Leonidas is "300 Warriors";
It is also said that there were 900 other Spartans, probably Spartan warriors in general, or even Spartan "helots" (Spartan slaves), 500 warriors of the city-state of Mantinea.
500 warriors of the city-state of Tegea.
400 Corinthian city-state warriors.
1120 Arcadian warriors.
200 warriors of the city-state of Phlius.
80 warriors of the city-state of Mycenae.
In total, about 3,100 (or 4,000) warriors from the Peloponnese were commanded by King Leonidas of Sparta.
Together with the allied armies of other Greek city-states outside the Peloponnese, there were:
700 warriors of the city-state of Thespiae.
400 warriors of the city-state of Thebes.
1,000 warriors of the city-state of Phocis.
An unknown number of soldiers from the city-state of Opuntian Locris in full force.
But in some early legends and modern films, it is exaggerated that there were only 300 Spartans, ignoring all slaves and friendly troops.

The Persians were certainly not blacks, although the Persians and Arabs were more alike, Xerxes (486-465 BC), and it was not until 651 AD that the Muslim forces conquered the Persian Empire in just ten years and took full possession of the territory of the Persian Empire. This new Islamic kingdom is called Iran. So the Persians are not Arabs either. >>>More

The circle is the most perfect figure, it is perfectly symmetrical, the resistance to the same volume is the least, and changing to other shapes will bring inconvenience to various activities of the body, so the head is round. In fact, every joint part of the human body is composed of a circle, because only the movement of the circle is the most convenient, and those parts that are not round are rods, which all play the role of levers. The human head shape is so large that it can be divided into several shapes, such as large, small, long, pointed, and round. >>>More
