			==Behind the scenes==
			The tyranny of the Thirty Tyrants is an event in Athens' history that features in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Nexus VR]]'' (2023). Kassandra, the canonical protagonist of ''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' (2018), returns in ''Nexus'' as a character aiding the rebellion against the Tyrants. Historically, the Spartan king [[Pausanias of Sparta\|Pausanias]] intervened to stop Lysander's efforts to suppress the revolution and helped to restore the democracy,<ref name="Gómez 2019" /> a fact made interesting by his role as a major antagonist in ''Odyssey''. All outcomes in ''Odyssey'' results in Pausanias' death decades before the Thirty Tyrants' reign although the [[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey (novel)\|novelization of the game]] leaves his fate ambiguous.
