Athens because Sparta's didn't have good development.
Sparta .
That would be Athens
Athens, Thebes, and Sparta were the three most powerful Greek City-States.
Athens was a democracy and had more liberal (for that time) thinking and had good navy. Sparta was a oligarchy was more conservative and militaristic and had great army. In the war between them (Peloponnesian war), Sparta won.
Sparta becaus they were more disciplined and knowledgeable when it came to war
Strong , because Athens and Sparta would be to busy fighting with each other (common sense)
The Persians would have won if Sparta and Athens had not united to fight the Persian Army
If you were a slave back in ancient Greece, you would prefer to be a slave in Athens. A Spartan slave would constantly be afraid for his life. Every year, the Spartans declared war on their slaves and they even had a 'special-ops' group called the Krypteia who were allowed to kill any slave they believed was plotting against the city. The killing of slaves was openly accepted in Sparta.

yes
Spartans are from Sparta and Athens are from Athen. Plus, Athens was just a city-state, whereas Sparta is an entire different nationality.
One's preference for living in either Sparta or Athens of ancient times must depend very much on one's own particular values and principles. Those who most admire social stability, military excellence, and a strict, fixed code of conduct will likely prefer Sparta. Those who place more emphasis on individual choice and initiative, artistic and philosophical excellence, and fluid codes of conduct will likely prefer Athens.
The main cause of the Peloponnesian War was Sparta's fear of Athens' growth. Sparta feared the growth and the power of Athens. As Athens gained more control and power in the Delian League, a coalition of Greek states whose purpose was to provide a navy for defense against the Persians, Sparta was concerned its own power would be reduced and Athens would take over. The rivalry between Sparta and Athens. C. Sparta's fear and jealousy of the power and wealth of athens.
