First homelander dying meme in this subreddit.
A prominent example of a laconism involving [Philip II of Macedon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philip_II_of_Macedon) was reported by the historian [Plutarch](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plutarch). After invading southern Greece and receiving the submission of other key [city-states](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/City-state), Philip turned his attention to Sparta and asked menacingly whether he should come as friend or foe. The reply was Neither.[^(\[3\])](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laconic_phrase#cite_note-3) Losing patience, he sent the message: >If I invade Laconia, I shall turn you out. The Spartan [ephors](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ephor) again replied with a single word: >If. Philip proceeded to invade Laconia, devastate much of it, and eject the Spartans from various parts.
spartans were never about being unbeatable, they simply never surrendered. There are many examples were spartan armies were annihilated but thats the thing, you had to kill every last one of them.
