What were Athens and Sparta?

Athens and Sparta were the two pre-eminent city-states of ancient Greece. Separated by the mountainous terrain of the Balkan peninsula, the city-states were their own autonomous countries, who only occasionally cooperated to fight common foes (such as the Persians). The two are often seen as opposites: Sparta as the military kingdom that championed the warrior, and Athens as the enlightened democracy that valued knowledge, law, and peace. Sparta had the strongest army, Athens had the strongest navy. Greece needed both of these outlooks or it would not have survived.
