They both fought in the second Persian War
Athens and Sparta were both prominent city-states in ancient Greece, but they had distinct differences in governance, culture, and society. Athens was known for its democratic government and emphasis on arts, philosophy, and education, while Sparta had a militaristic oligarchy focused on discipline and warfare. Both city-states valued their citizens' loyalty and had strong armies, but their societal structures and priorities diverged significantly, with Athens promoting individualism and intellectual pursuits, and Sparta prioritizing collective strength and military prowess.

You are obviously asking about ancient Athens. Well, during the years there were different allies to Athens according to what the needs required. At some point it could have been Sparta and then at another they were one against the other. Anyway, Sparta was mostly allied to Athens when it comes to matters of being commonlt threaten. Thebes and Megara were also traditional allies on account of being close to Athens. Boetians and Corinthians too for the same reason.
The difference between Sparta and Athens is that in Sparta, the ruling government was a military government, while in Athens, the ruling government was a democracy. In Sparta, the people focus on military matters. That is because of the fear of an uprising by their helots. In Athens, a democracy ruled. People voted on many matters such as which one they thought was the most dangerous to their testate and even military and naval expeditions against rival statutes. The different arts such as sculpture and poetry also flourished more in Athens. Athenians believed that one should also focus themselves on matters other than military ones. Athens focused on trades, technologies, civilizations, studies,... while Sparta focused on the military. That's why Spartan warriors were the most fierce warriors in Ancient Greece. Athens also treated their children differently. For example: Boys were taught reading, writing, mathematics, music, poetry, and sports. While in Sparta, they took them away from their parents at 7 yrs. old, to train for war. Further, in Sparta, both - boys and girls went to school, but in Athens, boys went to school but the girls did not, but attended basically, house work.

SPARTA: best military in greece, and defeated athens. Not a great learning community, and trained for war almost constantly. ATHENS: The best place to go in ancient times, a luxurious place for citizens. Hope I helped:)

Well, honey, Athens may have the brains, but Sparta definitely has the brawn when it comes to land size. Sparta's territory is larger than Athens on the map, so if you're looking for space to stretch your legs, Sparta's the place to be. But hey, size isn't everything, right?
