Why was Athens an important place in ancient Greece?
When peace was made with the Persian Empire in 449 BCE after 50 years of war, Athens seized the funds of the anti-Persian Delian League and continued to enforce annual payment of the war levy by the cities of the League. It used this money to sustain the war fleet which continued to collect the money, and used the funds to glorify the city (build the Parthenon etc), to put half its own populace on the public payroll, entice the best artists and other performers and philosophers and natural scientists etc to Athens. It became, for a half century, the centre of the Greek world, however its hubris caused it to over-reach itself in the disastrous 27-year Peloponnesian War against the southern Greek Peloponnesian league led by Athens. It lost in 404 BCE, was stripped of the empire it had created out of the Delian League, and without the money it extorded from that empire, sank to being a second-rate power.

Why might some Greek city-states have wanted to withdraw from the Delian League?
The Delian League was formed under Athenian leadership to oppose Persia and keep the Greek city-states liberated from the Persian Empire from falling back under its control. When Persia agreed to peace and to keep away from these cities, Athens took the League treasury used to fud the resistance to Persia to Athens, but also kept up the annual levy for the fighting fund, collected by force if necessary. The cities did not see why they should continue these payments. Athens did, because it used the money to build the Parthenon etc and keep half its population on the public payroll, including it's navy which made an annual cruise extorting the contributions (or 'tribute') for the now-defunct anti-Persian defence. They were kept paying, as Athens replaced the Persians as a master, so the cities, in escaping the Persian Empire, found themselves trapped in an Athenian Empire.
