Explanation:

1. The first blank: After Darius I (his father) died, Xerxes decided to continue the war with the Greeks. So the first drop - down should be filled with "Xerxes".
2. The second blank: The Greeks united with the Spartans, who were well - known for their military skills. So the second drop - down should be filled with "Spartans".
3. The third blank: After the Battle of Plataea (or other possible battles like Salamis, but Plataea was a decisive land battle where Persians were defeated and forced to leave Greece), the Persians lost. A common correct answer here is "Plataea" (or "Salamis" depending on the context of the curriculum, but Plataea is a key battle in the Persian Wars where the Persian land forces were defeated and they had to leave Greece).

Answer:

First drop - down: Xerxes
Second drop - down: Spartans
Third drop - down: Plataea (or Salamis depending on the specific historical context taught, but Plataea is a very common answer for the final battle where Persians were forced to leave Greece)
