What is the difference between Sparta and Athens.?

The difference between Sparta and Athens is that in Sparta, the ruling government was a military government, while in Athens, the ruling government was a democracy. In Sparta, the people focus on military matters. That is because of the fear of an uprising by their helots. In Athens, a democracy ruled. People voted on many matters such as which one they thought was the most dangerous to their testate and even military and naval expeditions against rival statutes. The different arts such as sculpture and poetry also flourished more in Athens. Athenians believed that one should also focus themselves on matters other than military ones.

Athens focused on trades, technologies, civilizations, studies,... while Sparta focused on the military. That's why Spartan warriors were the most fierce warriors in Ancient Greece.

Athens also treated their children differently. For example:

Boys were taught reading, writing, mathematics, music, poetry, and sports. While in Sparta, they took them away from their parents at 7 yrs. old, to train for war.

What finished the Spartans off?

The Spartans were first weakened by a loss to the Thebans in 371 at the Battle of Leuctra. They were defeated there because the opposing general used an ingenious strategy to which they did not adapt quickly enough.

Because Spartan citizenship was limited to those born and trained in Sparta, they could not replace their lost troops quickly. Also, the population of enslaved helots in Sparta was far larger than the ruling class of warriors. After the loss at Leuctra, a wave of helot uprisings further weakened the country.

Even so, Sparta remained a strong force in the region. Even Alexander the Great refused to invade it.

Sparta eventually joined the Achaean League and which was then conquered by Rome, but Sparta still retained its unique culture. Even after the fall of the Roman army in 378 BC, a Spartan army phalanx defeated a band of Visigoths in battle.

Sparta never really fell. It's unique culture slipped out of practice in the face of increased interaction with surrounding states. It's strict adherence to inherited citizenship also kept it from remaining independent of its neighbors. It just couldn't breed enough warriors to remain isolated.
