Sparta and Athens grew large and powerful through different means. Sparta developed a militaristic society that focused on discipline and training, expanding its territory through conquest and the subjugation of neighboring city-states, particularly in the Peloponnesian region. In contrast, Athens became a dominant naval power and center of trade, leveraging its geographic location to control maritime routes and enhance its economy, which facilitated cultural and political advancements. Both city-states established strong alliances and exerted influence over other regions, contributing to their growth and prominence in ancient Greece.
