Sparta

The Spartans dressed very simply and practically because they had to be free to move (because the Spartans were always training for war). The women wore very short tunics with a slit up the side to allow them to exercise. This was shocking to other Greek women who all wore heavy, long robes.

While on the march, Spartan Hoplites wore distinctive scarlet capes which they discarded in battle. Other than that, the hoplites were fairly like those of the rest of Achaea, except they wore no sandals, I'm not so sure of their reasoning except to prove how hard they were, a fear/morale thing is my guess

The Spartans were part of a combined military force of city-states in southern Greece which opposed the Persian invasion. The Persian force at Plataea was about 90,000 plus 40,000 Greek allies. The Greek force was slightly smaller, of which Sparta provided 5,000 armoured warriors and 35,000 light infantry..

They worked together when the persians were attacking

Athenian women bore and raised children, kept house and garden. They were kept in virtual purdah, getting out for occasional women's religious activities.

Spartan women were educated, had relative freedom, bore and raised childrem, supervised the household.

Both Athens and Sparta were powerful cities at that time (before the Peloponnesian War). But when Spartians understood that Athens started becoming dengerously powerful, started the conflict with Athens. Spartians, as a clearly war civilisation, always wanted to be the leading power..

Athens was able to beat Sparta because they had a bettter naval unit than the Spartins

God of War Ares.

Yes, because Sparta and Athens were once allies but then Athens turned on Sparta and Sparta responded with war.

Sparta. At just seven years old, boys would be stripped away from their families and plunged into training. In this brutal training, boys were taught to be ruthless killers and soldiers of war. One of the most merciless drills was at the end of their training; they were to sneak away from their quarters to strangle and kill a slave. The trick was that they could not get caught in the act. No matter the cause for it, they were harshly punished for the action. The reason for this rule it that they have been taught not to get caught. They have been trained for being stealthy in spying and if they are caught, then they are considered not fit.

Spartan soldier had to marry at the age of 30

Spartans at seven years old were asked to fornicate with another seven year old, after training. They would fornicate to the death-the survivor would fornicate the strong one that was worthy of war.

yes it is real. Sparta is a city-state of ancient Greece in the southeast Peloponnesus. Settled by Dorian Greeks, it was noted for its militarism and reached the height of its power in the sixth century B.C.. but remember the people in Sparta don't belive in mercy.

Women in Ancient Sparta had to roles. They had to have healthy children and keep house. The men at the time were always off fighting wars. If a child was sickly, it was not allowed to live. The girls also had to train alongside the boys in athletic competitions.

The Spartans did not win the Battle of Thermopylae. What the Spartans did do was hold back the invading army of Xerxes for a long enough time to allow Xerxes to do some serious thinking about what he might be getting himself into and it allowed the rest of the Greek States to get their stuff together to stave off total subjugation by the Persians.

Spartans were better that Athens! no doubt about it.

Actually, Sparta had a better army; the best army in Greece, and Spartan women enjoyed a higher status than women in Athens. Otherwise, it was generally better to be an Athenian, although they were far from perfect too.
