The population of ancient Greece increased by a factor larger than ten during the period from 800 BC to 400 BC, increasing from a population of 800,000 to a total estimated population of 10 to 13 million, according to wikipedia. It really depends though on the geographical and temporal extent under consideration. In it's prime, it has been suggested that along with the colonies Greece had a population much higher than modern Greece, although it is hard to suggest a figure.
A large war happened: the Peloponessian Wars (431 to 404 BC). Athens and Sparta went to war then their allies joined in. After many long bloody years, Sparta finally won and there were years of peace. But Sparta was severely weakened. Then Athens revolted. There was no unity among the city-states and Sparta had lost much of its empire. In 338 BC, the Macedonians under Philip II and his son Alexander conquered Greece, and the subsequent empires were eventually subsumed by Rome between 149 and 146 BC.
Ancient Olympic games were sports competitions held between different city states of Greece starting from 776 BC. These also included Athens, Heliopolis and Sparta.
Sparta just like the Roman Empire, it fell and Sparta doesn't exist anymore
The war was between Athens and Sparta, city-states of ancient Greece. Athens and Sparta engaged in a long and costly struggle, the Peloponnesian war (431-404 BC) and the more martial society, Sparta, eventually triumphed. (Sparta's victory provides a warning that, in a struggle between autocracy and democracy, democratic peoples cannot assume that freedom will triumph.)
Sparta's king during the time around the Persian's second invasion of Greece was Leonidas. He was alive from about 540 BC to 480 BC.
The population of Greece in 500 BC was around 400000. The population however increased to between 8 and 10 million by 800 BC.
Sparta, Athens, Thebes, and Macedonia were the main players for power in Greece at the time
Thebes
This war took place in Greece in the 5th century BC, between Sparta and Athens.

Well the country of Sparta no longer exist's but the capital still does, the country of Sparta was around until the year 1834 when a war between Sparta and Greece ended up with Sparta being absorbed by the rest of Greece
Even counting its helots, Sparta's population did not come anywhere near Athens' quarter million.
If it is surrounded by water, at all sides, then it is.No Sparta is not an island because it is connected to the mainland of Greece by a little piece of land.Sorry, but you are wrong.Sparta is an island because of a channel that divides Sparta from the mainland of Greece, the channel is located between the cities of Corinth and Loutraki. Look for yourself on Google earth!
Only athletes from city states in Ancient Greece competed. These included Sparta, Rhodes, Croton, etc.
It looks like Sparta was a city from around 900 BC or so until 192 BC.
