A cautionary tale, from a long time ago
"only 300 men held back the entire Persian horde."
...eeeh.
There weren't *just* 300 Spartans fighting. Herodotus estimates around 7000 total Greeks fighting.
The Spartan citizens had attendants and there were other Greeks fighting as well.
This is the kind of astute attention to detail that I expect from my readers. Thanks for the fact check!
