You give Nicias too much credit. He was the guy who would've called for the original Brexit vote.

Dunno. On reflection, it would be Pericles who called the referendum, convinced he could persuade everyone to agree with him and then going off in a huff when the people didn’t do what he wanted. Nicias would be Leave With Deal.

In my opinion, Athens’ disaster was almost 100% Nicias’ (David Cameron) fault, alongside the elders who recalled Alcibiades out of envy/ageism/politics. Alcibiades would’ve taken Syracuse, defeated Sparta, and made himself King of Athens if he’d been allowed to do things his way.
