The Greek city-state that decided to help Athens during its conflict with Persia was **Eretria**. Eretria, along with Athens, supported the Ionian Revolt against Persian rule in the early 5th century BCE. Later, during the Persian invasions of Greece, particularly the Battle of Marathon in 490 BCE, Athens sought assistance from other Greek city-states, but it was primarily the Athenians who contributed significantly to the victory against the Persians.
If you're referring specifically to assistance during the Persian Wars, it's important to note that while Eretria initially aided Athens, various other city-states, such as Sparta, would later contribute to the Greek coalition against Persia during subsequent battles, including the famous Battle of Plataea in 479 BCE.
