  1. watch 300


  2. watch 150.

  3. spartan culture completely suborned the individual to the needs of the state. we only revere the spartans because they helped save athens from persian conquest. if their sacrifice at thermopylae had not accomplished this, we wouldn't even bother remembering them. in and of themselves, they were not very admirable. spartan approach to life has inspired tyranny and dictatorship. among sparta's  most ardent admirers are Hitler and Mussolini.  not to mention socrates and plato, neither one great friends of democracy.

  4. The Spartans tried to force patriotism on their citizens.  Also, their military was their number one priority.

  5. The Spartans was an oligarchy (a few people held power) on the coast of the Meditteranean Sea. They focused on military skills to control the people they conquered.

  6. 300

  7. Religious, fierce, loyal (to their own people), war nation, respect for women, all things to enhance their man power, men taken at 8 and sent to military academy until 30. all war related things. un-trusting. enemy of Athens, un trustworthy

  8. Sparta was a Greek city-state established on the Peloponnese Peninsula (on continental Greece). They were a military state, and they fought on Medic Wars.  The main political system was military (think 300), as their education, a tad harsh too. However, the Medic Wars afected Sparta (even though Athens was perished), as all Greek States. In the end, Sparta has an amazing (but somewhat bloody) history.

  9. The Spartan Culture is defined as warlike.
