  • Olynth takes on the Macedonian pretenders to the throne Arrhidaios and Menelaus, half-brothers of King Philip II . This demands extradition; when this is refused, he attacks the city. This is supported by the Athenians , who first send their general Chares , who is soon replaced by Charidemos . In Athens itself, Demosthenes swore the population in three Olympic speeches (part of his Philippica ) on an anti-Macedonian course.
  • Eretria rebellion on Euboea against Athens
