Thebes had been under Macedonian occupation since the battle of Chaeronea, which had resulted in the defeat and deposition of Thebes as the pre-eminent city-state of Southern Greece.
The Thebans had reluctantly accepted this, as well as their compulsory membership in the League of Corinth, which had been previously imposed by Phillip II of Macedon, Alexander's father.
The expedition against Persia had been long in the works, and Alexander did not make it a secret that he planned to avenge the attacks on Greece by Persia a century and a half before, despite that at the time his kingdom had been a Persian vassal state.
It was as a result of this planned expedition that King Darius III started to distribute money to the Greek city-states with the hope that they would rise against their new Hegemon.
In addition to this, he had sent his most able general Memnon of Rhodes against the Macedonian troops that were already stationed in Ionia at this time.
In addition to this, news of Alexander had not reached the southern Greek city states for some time.
He had been busy with the siege of Pelium and a rumour had reached them that he had died during the course of this siege.
Demosthenes - a prominent Athenian politician - produced a man who claimed to have been present at the siege and claimed that Alexander was dead.
Alexander had, indeed, been injured during this siege, so it was not a totally implausible claim to make.
Upon learning of the alleged death of Alexander, Theban exiles in Athens raced off to their native city in Boeotia and sought to incite a revolt from Macedonian rule there.
The Cadmaea, the citadel that was situated upon a hill in Thebes, was occupied by a Macedonian garrison, and it was this place that the Thebans sought to attack.
To this effect, they killed two Macedonian officers who had been roaming the city, and declared their independence from Macedonia.

Marian Jones (Born 12 Oct 1975) is a female athlete.
Her contribution for women across the ages was that she was the first women to win five track and field medals at a single Olympics.
Many say that Marion Jones changed the world.
What Jones did to affect future generations was prove that women can do anything, to prove that women don't have to fall under a stereotype because of the gender someone is assigned in birth.
Many suspected Marion Jones accomplished so much because she was on steroids.
Jones denied the allegations.
In 2007, Jones admitted that she used steroids.
The International Olympic Committee took away her five medals and sentenced her to six months in prison.
People described Jones as a liar, and she was, but she admitted to her lies.
A clothes iron (also flatiron or smoothing iron) has a handle and a flat triangle shaped surface.
Electricity makes the flat surface hot.
A hot iron is rubbed on clothes to make them flat and smooth.
This is called ironing.
The handle does not get hot because that is where it is held.
They are named clothes irons because they used to be made out of the metal iron.
Cloth is made from lots of small strings.
When people wear clothes or move other things made from cloth, the little strings might bend and make lumps.
Because the iron is heavy and hot when it is turned on, the little strings stretch and go flat when the iron is put on top.
Different kinds of cloth need to be ironed in different ways.
If the iron is too hot then the cloth might get broken or burn.
If the iron is too cold then the strings might stay lumpy and not go flat.
Sometimes people use water with an iron, which makes steam.
This can make it easier to iron clothes because the small strings get soft.
Some cloth does not need to be ironed because the strings always stays flat.
Some people think wearing clothes that have been ironed shows they are not lazy.
Other people think that not ironing clothes can make them look nicer.

In baseball, a win–loss record shows the number of games that a pitcher has won and the number of games he has lost.
In each game, one pitcher on the winning team is awarded a win (the "winning pitcher") and one pitcher on the losing team is given a loss (the "losing pitcher").
These pitchers are known as the pitchers of record.
The awarding of a win or a loss for a pitcher is known as a decision, and only one pitcher for each team receives a decision in each game.
A starting pitcher who does not receive credit for a win or loss is said to have no decision.
In certain situations, another pitcher on the winning team who pitched in relief of the winning pitcher can be credited with a save, and holds can be awarded to relief pitchers on both sides, but these are never awarded to the same pitcher who is awarded the win.

The Wikipedia biography controversy, also known as the Seigenthaler incident, was a set of events that began in May 2005.
Anonymous Wikipedia editors posted a hoax article in Wikipedia about John Seigenthaler.
The article falsely stated that Seigenthaler had been a suspect in the deaths of U.S. President John F. Kennedy and U.S. Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy.
The then-78-year-old Seigenthaler, who was a friend of Robert Kennedy, described the Wikipedia article about him as "Internet character assassination".
The author of the hoax article was later identified as Brian Chase.
On May 26, 2005, Chase added a new article that contained, in its entirety, the following text:
For a short time, he was thought to have been directly involved in the Kennedy assassinations of both John, and his brother, Bobby.
The hoax was not discovered and corrected until September 2005.
Afterwards, Seigenthaler wrote about his experience in USA Today.
The incident raised questions about the reliability of Wikipedia and other websites with user-generated content that lack the legal accountability of traditional newspapers and published materials.
