Sparta was a Greek city-state which controlled the southern Peloponnesian Peninsula. Today it is a town of a few thousand, re-established from ruins 150 years ago.

Was leonidas a conscious hero?

If, as I'm guessing, you mean Leonidas I of Sparta 520-480bc, then yes he was. The prophecy he received before Xerxes invasion was: "Either a king dies on the fields of Thermopylae, or Sparta will fall" Sparta I should add, was a Dinarchy, they had two consecutive kings. It was Leotychdes (The other King) who wished to travel to Thermopylae to die for Sparta, but Leonidas managed to get himself to go, thus Sparta lost one of her greatest leaders, but acheived her goal of defending herself. He figured his life was a small price to pay for the freedom of Hellas and Sparta, a now ageless concept
