Trivia: The Battle of Thermopylae inspired which film?
300
Braveheart
Saving Private Ryan
Kingdom of Heaven
The correct answer is 300
So why is this answer correct? : The Battle of Thermopylae occurred in 480 BCE during the Greco-Persian Wars, and served as the basis for the 2006 film “300.” Greek king Leonidas led an army of just 7,000 men against King Xerxes I of the Achaemenid Empire and his troops, which were estimated to number between 70,000 and 300,000 men. In 1955, King Paul of Greece erected a statue of Leonidas at the site to honor his bravery.
