In what way did the Athens act unwisely in dealing with their allies in the deli an league?

Athens acted unwisely by imposing heavy tributes and exercising authoritarian control over their allies in the Delian League, prioritizing their own interests over mutual support. This led to resentment and resistance among the allies, who felt exploited rather than protected. Instead of fostering cooperation, Athens's approach created tensions that ultimately contributed to the League's disintegration and the outbreak of the Peloponnesian War. Their failure to treat allies as equals undermined their long-term stability and unity.
