How did the Delian League make Athens more powerful?

Sagot :

Answer:

Athens became so powerful from its alliance with city states on the island Dellos. All members protected one another and paid money for weapons and such but then Athan started to run the alliance as if it was it's own empire not letting anyone leave.

Its power in the League grew, especially after the famous statesman Pericles rose to power in Athens around 460 BC. Pericles began using the Delian League's resources, including its navy and taxes, for Athens. It was this money that let him build the massive temple in Athens called the Parthenon.
