Sparta
Athens is often considered better than Sparta because of its focus on culture, philosophy, and democracy. Athens was a center of arts, education, and intellectual pursuits, while Sparta was primarily a militaristic society. Additionally, Athens gave its citizens more freedom and opportunities for political participation compared to the strict and rigid society of Sparta.
Athens did, financed by the taxes it levied on the cities of its empire. Sparta gained one when the Persian king gave it the money to build and man it.

It would depend entirely on your status: a. as a free male, if were you were free in Athens, you had to work hard at farming, fishing, a trade or a labourer; you were called out for military service as needed. In Sparta as a citizen, you were supported by the state on the income derived from a serf population, and devoted yourself . b. as a free woman, in Athens you had to bear and raise children, work in the house and farm or business, and were kept in virtual purdah. In Sparta you were free to come and go, and indulge in athletic and cultural events. c. If you were not a free male, in Athens as a slave you worked in the farm, house or business endless hours. In Sparta they were serfs who did their own thing but rendered half their produce to the Spartan state. d. If you were not a free female, you worked in the house and farm and were at the disposal of the owning male. In Sparta, the female serfs lived with their male partners. Take your pick.
Ancient Greece was home to many cities, but the two dominant ones were Athens and Sparta. Athens gave us most of what we consider "Greek" culture, but Sparta provided the warrior ethos that made Greece strong.
Sparta focused more on military training and physical conditioning for boys from a young age, while Athens emphasized a broader education including subjects like math, philosophy, and arts. Therefore, Athens provided a more well-rounded education for boys compared to Sparta.
the macedonians of course... No, not the Macedonians. Sparta had many cities aligned in a league to defeat Athens, and some had formerly been Athenian allies who turned their coats because Athens treated them too harshly. Also, Sparta later formed an alliance with an old enemy, Persia, which continued to meddle in Greek affairs after their defeat by Sparta and Athens many years earlier. Persia gave Sparta money for a fleet. nobody helped them Yes, somebody helped them. They could not have done it without help, especially from the Persians and the Syracusans. Read the history.
The wars did not affect the political make up -Sparta continued as a limited democracy and Athens developed a radical democracy of their own making. Economically, Sparta continued to live on the serf population which gave half their produce to Sparta, Athens converted the Delian League it had led against Persia in the latter stages of the war, into an empire of its own, and lived high on the proceeds mulcted from those city-states.
It is the modern term for the war between Sparta and its allies and Athens and its empire, 431-404 BCE. Athens, after some notable successes, overstreched itself, and was finally defeated when Persia gave Sparta the funds to build up a navy capable of rivalling the Athenian navy.
The Athenian government was trying to be a democracy but did not succeed. The Spartans government was entirely different. The Spartans had an Oligarchy and a Monarchy. An Oligarchy is a government or council ruled by few people.
Sparta took over the south of the Peloponnesian Peninsula and turned the population into serfs who gave half of their produce to Sparta, which supported the Spartan males who were able to divert their life to training as warriors. Athens had a very rich discovery of silver, and the proceeds were allocated to producing a strong navy, which became the backbone of the naval defence against Persia.
