What Wikipedia says

Epaminondas (; Ancient Greek: Ἐπαμεινώνδας, romanized: Epameinōndas; 419/411–362 BC) was a Greek general and statesman of the 4th century BC who transformed the Ancient Greek city-state of Thebes, leading it out of Spartan subjugation into a pre-eminent position in Greek politics called the Theban Hegemony.
