Freed the greek cities in Asia minor and from Persian rule?

A majority of Greek cities were not under Persian rule ie those stretching from Massilia (now Maresilles) through Sicily, southern Italy, North Africa, mainland Greece and some Aegean islands. Those under Persian rule were around the coasts of the Black Sea, northern and eastern Aegean Sea, and the coast of Asia Minor.

Some were restored to independence in the aftermath of the Persian invasion (478 BCE onwards) by the combined mainland Greek forces. Some were freed by Agesilaus of Sparta in the early 4th Century BCE, the rest by Alexander the Great in the later 4th Century BCE.
