The chief rival of Sparta in ancient Greece was Athens. The two city-states represented contrasting cultures and political systems, with Sparta being a militaristic oligarchy and Athens a democratic center of arts and philosophy. Their competition culminated in the Peloponnesian War (431-404 BCE), which ultimately led to Athens's defeat and a brief period of Spartan dominance in Greece.
