Jaegyum: Ya, Jaeyi, look at this website about this person, Agesilaus. Have you heard of him?

Jaeyi: Hmm, Agesilaus... sounds a bit like a dinosaur name! What did he do? The website is all in Korean, and it looks kinda difficult.

Jaegyum: I used a translator. It says here he was a king of Sparta, like a really long time ago, in ancient Greece. See, this picture looks like a statue of him.

Jaeyi: Oh, Sparta! Like in those movies with the really strong soldiers? Was he one of them?

Jaegyum: It says he was a great military leader. He fought in lots of battles and was apparently very clever. This part talks about how he was even chosen as king when he wasn't even supposed to be!

Jaeyi: Wow, that's interesting! Why wasn't he supposed to be king? Was he naughty?

Jaegyum: No, it says his older brother died without an heir, and there was some other guy who was supposed to become king, but they chose Agesilaus instead. It seems like he was a really good leader, even though he had a limp.

Jaeyi: He had a limp? But he was a soldier? That must have been hard.

Jaegyum: Yeah, but it says he was still a great warrior and everyone respected him. He led Sparta in wars against other Greek cities and even fought against the Persians in Asia Minor.

Jaeyi: Persians! Like in those history books with the big empires? He must have been really brave!

Jaegyum: It seems so. This part here talks about his personality. It says he was simple and didn't like fancy things, even though he was a powerful king.

Jaeyi: So, he was strong and smart and not too showy? He sounds like a pretty cool king. I didn't know ancient Greece had people like that.

Jaegyum: Me neither! It's interesting to learn about these old stories. Maybe we can read more about Sparta later?

Jaeyi: Yeah, let's do that! Maybe they had cool weapons too!
