__NOTOC__
Year '''394 BC''' was a year of the [[Roman calendar|pre-Julian Roman calendar]]. At the time, it was known as the '''Year of the Tribunate of Camillus, Poplicola, Medullinus, Albinus, Mamercinus and Scipio''' (or, less frequently, '''year 360 ''[[Ab urbe condita]]'''''). The denomination 394 BC for this year has been used since the early medieval period, when the [[Anno Domini]] [[calendar era]] became the prevalent method in Europe for naming years.

=== By place ===

==== Greece ====
* The allies, [[Athens]], [[Thebes, Greece|Thebes]], [[Corinth]] and [[Argos, Peloponnese|Argos]], gather a large army at Corinth. A sizable army is sent out from [[Sparta]] to challenge this force. The two sides meet on the dry bed of the Nemea River, in Corinthian territory. In the resultant [[Battle of Nemea]], the Spartans win a major victory over the allies.
* The Athenian general [[Conon]], the [[Achaemenid Empire|Persian]] [[satrap]] [[Pharnabazos II, Satrap of Phrygia|Pharnabazus]] and [[Evagoras I|Evagoras]], King of [[Salamis, Cyprus|Salamis]], win an overwhelming naval victory over the Spartans under [[Peisander (general)|Peisander]] in the [[Battle of Cnidus]] (near [[Rhodes]]). Following this victory, Conon and Pharnabazus sail along the coast of [[Ionia]], expelling Spartan governors and garrisons from the cities, although they fail to reduce the Spartan bases at [[Abydos, Hellespont|Abydos]] and [[Sestos]]. With the Spartan bid for building an empire crumbling, Persia gains mastery of the [[Aegean Sea|Aegean]].
* The two sides' armies meet each other again at Coronea, in Theban territory in the [[Battle of Coronea (394 BC)|Battle of Coronea]]. Once more, the Spartans under King [[Agesilaus II]] are successful in battle. After this victory, Agesilaus sails with his army across the [[Gulf of Corinth]] and returns to Sparta.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Xenophon, Hellenica, Book 4, chapter 3, section 16 |url=https://www.perseus.tufts.edu/hopper/text?doc=Perseus:text:1999.01.0206:book=4:chapter=3:section=16 |access-date=2025-03-23 |website=www.perseus.tufts.edu}}</ref>
