Slaves in Athens were usd as farm workers, fishermen, servants, miners, prostitutes.
Sparta did not have slaves - it had serfs who were free but delivered half their produce to the city-state.
In both, they were required to serve as light infantry in the army when required.
because the gods were really mad at the people from Sparta that they decided to kill them all....so the Athens wins
Athens
The war was basically between Sparta and its allies and Athens and its empire.
Slavery played a huge role in ancient Athens. Slaves did most jobs, from working in the fields to building and mining. Slaves even made up most of Athens' police force. Slaves were not generally mistreated though, and even had some rights by law.
Athens was the maritime power and Sparta was the continental power. The war slogged on and off for over thirty years until Sparta finally gained superiority at sea, and a plague brought in form the Pontic grain ships killed possibly as many as one-third of the population of Athens, leaving it, almost literally, too weak to fight.
It was a principal source of labour, eg a third of the population of Athens were slaves.
Athens because Athena was so smart and she's my role-model. Just my opinion.
Most important at Sparta compared to Athens and other cities.

Athens, Sparta, and Troy are all located in ancient Greece. Athens is situated in the region of Attica, while Sparta is found in Laconia in the Peloponnese. Troy, known for its role in the Trojan War, is located in what is now northwest Turkey, near the Dardanelles. These cities were significant centers of power and culture in ancient Greek history.
They were part of an alliance of about 30 Greek city-states which turned back an invasion of mainland Greece 480-479 BCE. Sparta provided the largest land force contingent, Athens the largest naval contingent. Sparta commanded in this phase of the 50-year war, Athens led in the later phase.
In both Sparta and Athens, women and slaves had limited rights, but the specifics varied significantly between the two city-states. Spartan women enjoyed relatively more freedoms compared to their Athenian counterparts; they could own property and were educated, as their primary role was to produce strong warriors. In contrast, Athenian women were largely confined to domestic roles and had few legal rights, while slaves in both societies faced harsh conditions and were considered property without personal rights. Overall, both groups experienced significant restrictions, but Spartan women had somewhat more autonomy than those in Athens.
