Question 13 • TX-World History Studies A-CR

Why did city-states in the Delian League revolt against Athens?

Answer
A
They resented not having a say in the government.
B
They wanted to establish a representative democracy.
C
They feared that Athens could not protect them from Persia.
D
They worried that Athens would not stop an attack by Sparta.

Explanation

The Delian League began as an alliance to defend Greek city-states against Persia, but Athens gradually took control of it. Athens demanded tribute and limited the allies’ independence, leaving member city-states with little say in decisions. Their resentment of Athenian domination led them to revolt, so choice A is correct.
