Battle of Cnidus
The Battle of Cnidus (394 BC), was a joint Persian and Athenian operation against the Spartan naval fleet in the Corinthian War. The Persian fleet, led by the former Athenian admiral Conon, utterly destroyed the Spartan fleet led by the inexperienced Peisander, ending Sparta's brief bid for naval supremacy.
