The '''Battle of Cyzicux''' in 410 B.C. was part of the [[Second Peloponnesian War]] between the [[Greek]] [[city states]] of [[Athens]] and [[Sparta]] and their allies. The Athenian commander [[Alcibiades]] won a decisive victory over the Peloponnesian fleet and a [[Persian]] army (who had allied with Sparta) in a combined land-sea operation in the Sea of Marmora. Sparts sued for peace after the battle based on the [[status quo]], but [[Cleophon]] the [[demagogue]] had just seized power in Athens and refused, much to the furture sorrow of the Athenians.
