'''Demosthenes''' was the most trusted military general for [[Athens]], leading armies in battle from 426 B.C. during the [[Second Peloponnesian War]] until the Athenian disaster in the war against [[Syracuse]] in 413 B.C. After the Athenians were defeated in Syracuse and their army captured, Demosthenes and the other Athenian general [[Nicias]], who had also fought during the same time period, were executed.
