A conqueror. It was not a tyrant - tyrants were appointed to put an end to autocratic rule by oligarchs and give the mass of people fair treatment.
In Ancient Greece, tyranny was often established when a single ruler seized power, typically through force or popular support, bypassing traditional aristocratic or democratic systems. Tyrants often gained favor by enacting reforms, providing public works, or redistributing land to win support from the lower classes. However, their rule was marked by repression of dissent and reliance on mercenary forces to maintain control. While some tyrants were viewed positively for their contributions to society, many faced resistance and were eventually overthrown, leading to a return to more democratic governance.

The real Spartan shield, known as the hoplon, was a crucial part of ancient Spartan warfare. It was large and round, providing protection for the soldier's body and forming a shield wall when soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder. This shield formation, called the phalanx, was a key tactic in ancient battles, allowing Spartan warriors to advance as a unified force and overwhelm their enemies. The hoplon symbolized the discipline and unity of the Spartan army, contributing to their reputation as formidable warriors in ancient Greece.
