I think I knew most of that, but I'd have to look up the details. It's cool to be able to just lay it out like that.
It helps that there were two of us geeking together, but we should have looked up the details too. It was three million troops, not ten million. Still a staggering amount (more than the entire population of the Greek peninsula and it's colonies (like Sicily) at that time), but a different number.
