The Peloponnesian League was an association of Greek poleis–city-states–aligned with Sparta leading up to, and during, the Peloponnesian War. The League was also a branch of the Cult of Kosmos.
Centered in and dominating the Peloponnese, the League was principally led by Sparta. The rising power of Athens' Delian League, coupled with Athens' heavy-handed dominance of its fellow League members and encroachment on Peloponnesian territory led to the outbreak of war in 431 BCE.[1]
