Detailed explanation-1: -The Herculean legend made them believe that the land was rightfully theirs. Coming from the northern and northwestern areas of Greece, the Dorians conquered multiple areas as they moved south with invasions of the Peloponnese and then the Aegean.
Detailed explanation-2: -It is believed that an enemy, Eurystheus of Mycenae, is the leader who invaded The Dorians. The Dorians were considered the people of ancient Greece and received their mythological name from the son of Hellen, Dorus.
Detailed explanation-3: -The Persians didn’t like this and decided to conquer the rest of the Greek cities in order to keep them under control. Darius I, King of Persia, decided he wanted to conquer the Greeks in 490 BC. He gathered a vast army of soldiers that outnumbered any army the Greeks could muster.
Detailed explanation-4: -The Dorian people are traditionally acknowledged as the conquerors of the Peloponnese (in the period 1100–1000 bce). In Greek tradition, the Dorians were thought to have gained their name from Doris, a small district in central Greece.
