The war between Athens and Macedon erupted in 356, when Phillip moved to strike a series of Athenian ports that had refused goods to the Macedonian Kingdom. Seeing a opportunity to seize the massive gold mines and deposits in the North, Phillip moved his army against the ports, which were relatively undefended. Over the next four years, Macedon successfully defeated the Athenian allies and satellite cities, eventually launching attacks on Athenian colonies, and defeating a series of counter-invasions led by the navy.

  • The war between Athens and Macedon erupted in 356, when Phillip moved to strike a series of Athenian ports that had refused goods to the Macedonian Kingdom. Seeing a opportunity to seize the massive gold mines and deposits in the North, Phillip moved his army against the ports, which were relatively undefended. Over the next four years, Macedon successfully defeated the Athenian allies and satellite cities, eventually launching attacks on Athenian colonies, and defeating a series of counter-invasions led by the navy. Phillip was able to muster a massive force, nearly twice the size of his initial force, and marched on Pagasae, a Athenian base of operations. After defeating a large garrison force, he was able to destroy any naval support that Athens could give to its land army, under Helmetrus. Phillip split the allied armies, and was able to single out the Athenian army, which, after a series of small losses, numbered much less then Phillips army.
