Like how the Spartans are remembered for thermopylae even though they weren't the only ones fighting there. And then the Spartans went crying to the Persian to help them fight Athens in the Peloponnesian War. And also the first person to run a marathon died after delivering the message so now people hear that story and think I bet it won't kill me.
300 SPARTANS and 700 Athenians
