What were the opponents of the Trojan war?

The Greeks of Sparta. Paris, Prince of Troy, stole immortal Helen of Sparta from her father, Menelaus. Menelaus wanted his (adopted, in a way) daughter back. The Greeks stormed Troy, where Paris and Helen were living together. That 10-year siege, called the Trojan war, involved the god Ares, the goddesses Hera, Athena, and Aphrodite, and the famous Trojan horse.


Why was Sparta the only city-state without walls?

Many of the Greek city-states didn't have walls, particularly in Asia Minor - it was a matter of whether they had anything worth looting, were capable of defending themselves anyway and whether they could rely on their Persian overlords to protect them. Sparta's reason was firstly that it was a collection of villages, and a wall around the lot would have been impracticable. So they decided theat, rather than have one village walled as a citadel, to rely on being able to defeat an invader (or their serfs, or their non-citizen freemen living in the countryside) by fighting in the open and in the village streets - as they said, their warriors were their walls.


What was life in both Sparta and Athens like?

Sparta was a war-oriented city; everything revolved around military training. This is probably why Sparta had the strongest army of ancient times. At the age of 7, boys were sent off to military school where they would be taught discipline and obedience, and they remained tied to the military for the rest of their lives. Even women were expected to be physically superior; they were expected to train and participate in athletic events in order to bear strong children. In fact, the only people that received headstones on their graves in Sparta are the men who died in war and the women who dies in childbirth.Athens, on the other hand, was more intellectually driven. Athenian men did receive military training, but only for a limited time; the only time that the army was assembled was during a war, and after the war, everyone went back to living normal, peaceful lives. Even though Athens' army may not have been very strong, their navywas the strongest one in the Greek world.Many of the famous ancient thinkers - such as Socrates, Aristotle, Hippocrates, and so on - were from Athens. Politics were also very big in Athens; this city is where democracy originated, and almost everyone in Athens could participate in the government.


What was life like in the city-state of Sparta?

Spartans were fierce and warlike people. They didn't have fine building. The city was more than a village. Every new baby was examined, if it looked weak it was left outside to die. A boy started his training as a soldier at the age of eleven. He spent most of his time as a full time soldier, living away from his family. Spartan girls had to have strong bodies so that they could be the mother of strong soldiers.
