Did Sparta have a military dictatorship?
No, Sparta did not have a military dictatorship. While Spartan society was certainly military-oriented, the government itself was basically a government of acclimation. The political system was unusual in that it had two hereditary kings from two separate families, and as priests of Zeus, they also sat on the council of elders. This body consisted of 28 over-60 years of age males who held the position for life. They led a citizen assembly and were the highest court in Sparta. The assembly met once a month, with laws passed by voice-vote.

Under King Abdullah, Saudi Arabia adheres to a punitive justice system in which young teens can be sentenced to death and defendants tortured. Women are more oppressed than in any other country-they can't even seek medical care without a male guardian's permission.
Although Abdullah did not become king until 2005, he has ruled Saudi Arabia since his half-brother, Fahd, suffered a stroke 10 years earlier. In Saudi Arabia, phone calls are recorded and mobile phones with cameras are banned. It is illegal for public employees "to engage in dialogue with local and foreign media." By law, all Saudi citizens must be Muslims. According to Amnesty International, police in Saudi Arabia routinely use torture to extract "confessions." Saudi women may not appear in public with a man who isn't a relative, must cover their bodies and faces in public and may not drive. The strict suppression of women is not voluntary, and Saudi women who would like to live a freer life are not allowed to do so.
