Sparta was a society that valued physical training and military prowess over intellectual pursuits like writing and reading. Education in Sparta focused on training for combat and preparing for war, with reading and writing considered secondary skills.
In Sparta, slaves were known as helots and were considered the property of the state. Helots were subjected to harsh treatment, forced labor, and were often mistreated by their Spartan masters. They lived in a state of perpetual servitude and had limited rights and freedoms.
Because Sparta was focused soley around thier military
This is Sparta! = Dies ist Sparta!
Athens is often considered better than Sparta because of its focus on culture, philosophy, and democracy. Athens was a center of arts, education, and intellectual pursuits, while Sparta was primarily a militaristic society. Additionally, Athens gave its citizens more freedom and opportunities for political participation compared to the strict and rigid society of Sparta.
