Lycurgus
The Spartan state. It allocated the produce of seven serfs (helots) to each Spartan male citizen, which freed them from farming and allowed them to concentrate on military training.
Spartan women were into physical training like running, wrestling, and javelin throwing.
Achilles was king of the Myrmidons, a people who excelled at warfare. The myrmidons were one of the inspirations for Lycurgus the Lawgiver when he reformed Spartan society.
yes- they went to a type of "agoge" like the spartan boys but they did not focus on military. they did wrestling and gymnastics and various calisthenics
Helots were important because they revolted often. The average Spartan citizen had 12 helots to himself. So, the helots outnumbered the Spartans. The helots' large rebellions caused the Spartans to strenghten their army. This constant test of military ability made the Spartan military strong and powerful.

Yes, Spartan boys were sent to military school called the Agoge at the age of 7 to undergo physical and military training, while also receiving education in warfare, survival skills, discipline, and Spartan values.
Sparta's military was only Spartan Citizens and had almost no archers. The training began at age 6 when a boy was taken from his mother and pressed into a harsh military school where they were regularly beaten and starved encourging strentgh, loyalty, and taking what you need. Spartan boys often stole from Helots, which were spartan slaves, to get food. When they were ready they went into the mountains and had to survive for 10 days to a month, with only a adult Spartan there to make sure he didnt cheat, abnd mabye another boy. Greeks were a lot less physical in their training. They were a sign up army. Often boys washed out from cities because tehy weren't use to the training. And the training was not as tough.
If you beat it on legendary, co-op or solo, you unlock the spartan VI armor.
They conquered neighbouring territories and made the inhabitants into serfs who provided part of their crops to the Spartan state.. This freed the Spartan males to concentrate on military training instead of farming for subsistence.

In ancient Sparta, boys at the age of 7 were taken from their mothers and went to live in barracks to begin military training. At age 20, they were declared fully-trained soldiers and put on active duty. At age 30, Spartan soldiers no longer had to live in the barracks.At age 7, Spartan boys were taken from their mother and began military training. They lived in barracks with other boys.
during the spartan ages when children as young as 6 were sent to military training camps where they became warriors
