Campaigns of Thebes, 379–362 BC

Abstract
In the 370 s
bc
Thebes first liberated itself from Spartan occupation and then gradually reasserted its authority over surrounding Boeotia. In 371 the conflict with Sparta culminated at Leuctra, where, to the surprise of all Greeks, the inspired Theban army under Epaminondas and Pelopidas shattered the Spartans. Subsequently Epaminondas invaded the Peloponnese to liberate Messenia from Spartan domination and dissolve the Peloponnesian League. Pelopidas’ efforts to extend Theban authority into Thessaly ended in failure and death, while Theban influence in the Peloponnese was greatly reduced when Epaminondas died at the inconclusive Battle of Mantinea.
