horribly, terribly
Yes, Sparta relied on a system of slaves called helots who were more numerous than the free citizens; in fact, the helots greatly outnumbered the Spartan citizens. In contrast, Athens also had slaves but fewer in number compared to the free population.
The slaves who worked at hard labor in Sparta were known as Helots. They were primarily tasked with agricultural labor and served as a labor force for the Spartans.
Slaves in Athens were considered property and had no legal rights. They were often treated harshly and were subject to physical punishment, but treatment could vary depending on their individual circumstances. They were used for manual labor, household work, and even as tutors or artisans.
No, life in Athens and Sparta was not the same for everyone. In Athens, only male citizens had full rights and participated in the democratic process, while women, slaves, and foreigners had fewer rights. In Sparta, the social system revolved around the military, and all citizens underwent rigorous military training, while slaves known as helots performed manual labor.
Two differences between Athens and Sparta are their forms of government (Athens had a democracy while Sparta had an oligarchy) and their focus on military training (Sparta emphasized military training from a young age while Athens did not). Two similarities are their use of slaves for labor and their belief in the importance of physical fitness.
Women and slaves were treated unfairly because they were not allowed to be citizens,vote, and did not have any rights.there were no slaves in Sparta, and the women were treated with dignity.

they treat them like crapp :)
Slaves were not allowed to be citizens. They were beaten and abused whenever they did something wrong. They generally came from other lands that the Spartans had conquered, and were forced to work for the Spartans.
They were treated differently in different city-states, such as Sparta (Which is where I am from) called them hoplites and didn't really care about their slaves, they were usually prisoners of war, they treated them harshly and were beaten on occasion when they did something bad or wrong, and they were at the bottom of the hierarchy. Athens treated slaves more respectfully but they were still at the bottom of the hierarchy.
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!
