In April 404 BCE, the [[Peloponnesian War]] ended when [[Athens]] surrendered to [[Sparta]]. The Athenian democracy was replaced by an oligarchy of [[Thirty Tyrants|30 Tyrants]] selected from among the aristocracy to rule over the city. Under the lead of the radical [[Critias]] and the more moderate [[Theramenes]], the 30 Tyrants created a new council and a college of magistrates. They issued new laws based on the old constitutions. They also tore down the walls of Athens and abolished the popular juries.Their opponents were persecuted through multiples sentences, confiscation of property or even death, with the execution of prominent citizens and foreigners frighteningly frequent. After their [[Battle of Munychia|defeat]] at [[Munychia]], the 30 Tyrants were removed from power and democracy was reestablished in September 403 BCE.
