About this quiz

What you’ll practice

From the Delian League to the Peloponnesian League, this quiz helps you connect city-states to the coalitions they led, joined, resisted, or fought.

You’ll also sharpen your ability to place events and institutions in context—who had influence where, and why certain regions repeatedly became flashpoints.

Format and difficulty

Each question has 4 options and there’s no timer, so you can think through names, geography, and chronology without pressure.

Choose your question count and difficulty before you start: shorter sets are great for quick revision, while longer runs build endurance and reveal weak spots. Difficulty is mixed on purpose, balancing straightforward IDs (major poleis and famous leagues) with tougher items (lesser-known federations, local rivalries, and shifting memberships).

Common pitfalls to avoid

  • Mixing up similarly named leagues and federations across different centuries
  • Assuming a city-state’s allegiance stayed constant throughout the period
  • Confusing a hegemon (leader) with a member state or tributary
  • Treating “Sparta vs. Athens” as the only lens and ignoring regional power blocs
  • Forgetting that geography often explains alliances as much as ideology

Tips for better scores

When you miss a question, note whether the mistake was about location, timeline, or political structure—then look for patterns in your errors. A quick mental map of regions (Attica, Boeotia, the Peloponnese, Thessaly, Ionia) will often eliminate two options immediately.
