What the heck, that is not true all city states have there own importance. Sparta is important too, you have to know that.Well Athens was the most important for its trade routes and government system, and Sparta was a powerful but only for they war skills.

Greece did not exist as a country in Ancient World. There were numerous Greek-city states including Athens, Sparta, Argos, Corinth just to name a few. The main reason a war broke out between Athens, its allies and the Peloponnesian league, was due to many reasons, such as Sparta's need to train in real war situations (Sparta didn't wage war very often) and battles for territory.
Athens , a sea power ,sought to exploit her neighbors commercially through the dominance of her navy to the detriment of Sparta , a land based power , and other city-states . This led to many wars.
The Athens society was far better than that of Sparta since Athens was more intellectual and wanted to learn and develop; they were not just focused on war. Sparta was much more practical and learning how to fight was any Spartan's top priority. Athens developed the democracy as well.
Athens being a naval power , ironically , had to become a land-based power whereas , in contrast , Sparta being a land-based power had to become a naval power in order to carry out the conflict against each other .
