Sparta grew by taking over territory and converting the inhabitants into serfs who delivered half their produce to the Spartan state. So the society had different levels - the Spartiates, the perioci (livers about - non Spartan landowners) and the serfs. All the Spartan males were warriors, and as they didn't have to farm to support themselves, were able to direct themselves to military training.
