The Aetolian campaign, often referred to as "Demosthenes' Aetolian campaign", was a failed Athenian offensive in northwestern Greece during the Archidamian War. In 426 BCE, Demosthenes was dispatched from Athens to the Corinthian Gulf in command of a fleet of 30 ships. Arriving in the northwest, he quickly assembled a coalition force from Athens' allies in the region and besieging the city of Leucas. Before that siege reached a conclusion, however, he was persuaded to abandon it in favor of an attack on the tribal region of Aetolia. Leaving Leucas, he set out towards Aetolia, losing along the way several major contingents from his army, whose leaders were apparently unhappy with his change in strategy.

  • La campagne d'Étolie est menée en 426 av. J.-C. pendant la guerre du Péloponnèse par l'armée du général athénien Démosthène et ses alliés Acarnaniens contre les tribus locales. Au cours de cette campagne, l'armée de Démosthène se perd dans les montagnes de la région et tombe dans une embuscade tendue par les tribus étoliennes. Thucydide évoque de lourdes pertes parmi les troupes alliées des Athéniens, qui perdent quant eux environ 120 hoplites avant de pouvoir se replier sur Naupacte. (fr)
  • De Aetolische Veldtocht was een veldtocht in 426 v.Chr., tijdens de Peloponnesische Oorlog, die ondernomen werd door de Atheners onder leiding van Demosthenes tegen de Aetoliërs. (nl)

  • La Campaña de Etolia, con frecuencia llamada Campaña etolia de Demóstenes, fue una ofensiva ateniense fallida en el noroeste griego durante la Guerra arquidámica. En 426 a. C., Demóstenes fue enviado desde Atenas hacia el Golfo de Corinto al mando de una flota de 30 navíos. Al llegar al noroeste, reunió rápidamente una coalición de aliados de Atenas en la región y asedió la ciudad de Léucade. Sin embargo, previo al final del asedio, fue convencido de levantarlo para realizar un ataque sobre la región tribal de Etolia. Abandonando la península de Léucade, se dirigió hacia el oeste, a Etolia, y en el camino perdió a varios contingentes de su ejército puesto que al parecer sus líderes estuvieron disconformes con el cambio en la estrategia.

  • La campagna etolica, spesso definita come "la campagna etolica di Demostene", è stata un'offensiva ateniese fallita nella Grecia nord-occidentale durante la Guerra Archidamica. Nel 426 a.C. Demostene fu spedito da Atene al golfo di Corinto, al comando di una flotta di 30 navi. Arrivando nel nord-ovest, assemblò rapidamente una forza di coalizione da parte degli alleati di Atene nella regione e assediato la città di Leucade. Prima che l'assedio raggiungesse una conclusione, però, fu convinto ad abbandonarlo in favore di un attacco alla regione tribale di Etolia. Lasciando , partì verso l'Etolia, perdendo lungo il percorso diversi grandi contingenti di suo esercito, i cui comandanti erano apparentemente infelici del suo cambio di strategia. (it)
  • Этолийский поход — неудачное афинское наступление на западе Греции во время Архидамовой войны. В 426 г. до н. э. Демосфен был отправлен из Афин в Коринфский залив во главе флота из 30 кораблей. Прибыв на северо-запад, он быстро собрал коалиционные силы из союзников Афин в регионе и осадил город Левкаду. Однако ещё до исхода осады его убедили отказаться от неё в пользу нападения на племенной регион Этолии. Оставив Левкаду, он отправился в Этолию, потеряв по пути несколько основных контингентов из своей армии, лидеры которых, очевидно, были недовольны его изменением стратегии. (ru)
