Athens was mostly based off of trade because it had such little farmland so it imported a lot of grain and exported a lot of manufactured goods and olive oil when Sparta was self- supported to gain a bigger military advantage so it was based off more agriculture even though usually to get things they usually just went out and stole them given the size of their military.

Athens had more shipbuilders compared to Sparta, largely due to its powerful navy and emphasis on maritime trade.

What are the main characteristics of Athens and Sparta?
Sparta had a more militaristic state than Athens. Sparta had all men training for the military at age seven and ending at age sixty (so basically their whole life was for the military). Also, Sparta valued women much more than Athens. In Athens, women had no rights at all and were only there to reproduce and to clean up after the men and manage the home. They also took care of the babies. Unlike the Sparta women who were allowed to have military training (but could not serve in the military), play sports, learn about the arts, go out in public, and own property/stores. Those from Sparta were descendants of the Dorian invaders, however those from Athens were descendants of the Ionians. Athens founded democracy, and believed that the individual was important, while Sparta believed in the state rather than the individual, with a government based on a oligarchic system. Sparta based their society on the repression of 'Helots' (slaves). Athens freed their slaves and abolished debt slavery.

What caused a lack of trust between Sparta and Athens?
In about 460 BCE, after the Persian invasion had been repelled by the combined Greek forces, Sparta was facing a revolt by its serf population in Messene, and making heavy weather in putting it down. Athens offered to help and sent an expeditionary force to reinforce the Spartan forces. The Athenians were very adventurous in their operations, and showed up Spartan methods, which was based on trying to force a pitched battle with an elusive opposition which declined to make itself such a target. There is also a suggestion thet the Athenians showed some sympathy for the Messenians. The upshot was that Sparta invited the Athenians to go home, and the usual cooperative spirit between the two cities soured. After peace was finally made with the Persians in 449 BCE, Athens converted the anti-Persian Delian League which it led into an empire of its own, continuing to levy the war fund from the 200 cities of that league to use for its own benefit and maintaining a strong navy to enforce the annual collection of money. With this strength, Athens aggressively interfered in the affairs of the cities to which Sparta was allied in the Peloponnesian League, particularly Corinth. The Peloponnesian League members urged Sparta to help them stand up to Athens. A cocksure Athens persisted in interfering in other cities, and this came to a head when Athens banned Megara, a Peloponnesian League member, from trade with cities in its empire, which would destroy Megara. The Peloponnesian League demanded Sparta act, Sparta demanded Athens back off, Athens refused, war ensued.
