Leonidas at Thermopylae

I was born a king, but I was trained like every other warrior, because in Sparta

strength and discipline were a way of life. From childhood, I learned to endure pain,

obey the law, and fight without fear. When a mighty empire demanded our surrender,

I chose resistance over submission. With a small army, I stood against thousands in a narrow

mountain pass, buying time for Greece to unite and defend its freedom. My sacrifice became

a symbol of courage, honor, and defiance against impossible odds, and my stand turned

into legend. Guess who I am.
