Yes most people who lived in Athens did have plenty of food but Sparta did not
Sparta won from strong allies and cutting Athens off from its food supplying colonys.
sparta's staregy was to cut off the athenian food supply by destroying crops. athens' startegy was to avoid battles on land and to rely on sea power
■A siege. The Athenians still received food but only from the sea. Athens was a naval power due to the quality and quantity of their ships (called triremes).
Sparta's war strategy was to burn down all of Athens crops so they would have a small food supply which would make them weaker.
Both had adequate food supplies. The Spartans received theirs from their serf population who rendered half their produce to Sparta. Athens turned the Delian League it had led against Persia into an empire of its own and lived high on the tax it extorted from the 180 Greek city-states it dominated.
Slaves in Athens and Sparta did not have a lot of rights. They where not even allowed to go to religious festivals and they had to ask their master's permission to even go to the bathroom!
Athens food is food from Greece. But it has its own Athens style of food.
It provided the Spartan alliance with the money to get a sea fleet to match and defat Athens' hitherto superiority. With its fleet destroyed, Athens was confined within its walls, could not import food, and was starved into surrender.
Sparta had sparse living accommodations. Sparta had boys removed from the family and living in dormitories. Spartan men ate to be strong warriors. They slept nude and were allowed to gather thistle down to add to their beds made of reeds. Athens had simple homes. Art was seen as a public activity. The rich had tables and chairs made of wicker, wood, metal or marble. Beds had cushions of wool, hay, leaves or feathers.
it was used to stop shipments of food and supplies from coming into Athens. After the blockades affect on Athens, Athens had to surrender to Sparta so they could live on for a tiny bit longer instead of starving to death. P.S- The war was called the Peloponnesian War
