Where did Sparta and Athens stop king xerxes March into Greece?

Sparta and Athens, along with other Greek city-states, stopped King Xerxes' march into Greece at the Battle of Salamis in 480 BCE. This naval battle occurred in the straits between the island of Salamis and the Athenian coast, where the Greek fleet decisively defeated the Persian navy. Prior to this, the Persian advance was also halted at the Battle of Thermopylae, where a small Greek force, including Spartans led by King Leonidas, made a valiant stand against Xerxes' much larger army.


What are the good things in Sparta?

Sparta had a strong military reputation in Ancient Greece. Despite the city not being democratic like Athens many philosophers from Athens believed that the Spartans had a better system of government than their own. Sparta had a more stable system and an army that could out drill, out march and out fight any other army in Greece. All male citizens were equals and there was no real division between rich and poor. Sparta is located in a fertile valley protected by nature by the mountains that surround her. Also because the men were often away at war, the women of Sparta were more free than their counterparts in other city-states including Athens.
