But who are the Spartans?

Stemming from the Ancient Greek city / state named Sparta, the Spartans were a nation of warriors who begin training their boys for war at a very young age. They are known to have utilized brilliant combat tactics and were fearless on their battle fields.

The male population had but one goal and that was to fight and to die heroically for Sparta. The women’s sole duty was to breed more men Spartans. Thus the Spartans had no art, no literature, no architecture, no exploration, no science, and no commerce to speak of. Likewise, the Spartans had no sympathy for the weak and the sickly, who were either just left to die or their inevitable death was expedited by homicide.

With the Persians continually threatening their sovereignty, in 479 BC the Spartans waged the infamous Battle of Plataea in which they indeed defeated the Persian.

Like Rome, Sparta was not built in a single day but it is all too obvious how it gained its power — through its incredible women and their heroic men.

Having conquered the southern half of the Peloponnese, Greece in 600 BCE and enslaving its Helot inhabitants, Sparta soon became one of the strangest societies in the ancient world because the entire nation formed one large military campground.

Upon reaching age 7, all boys were taken away from under their mothers’ care and surrendered to the military regime of the state where they would remain, in one capacity or another, for the rest of their natural lives. There they were taught strict military discipline and how to endure the hardships of bloody battles and the skills to overpower their enemies. In a way of practice, every young boy was expected to kill at least eight Helots.

Therefore, all other aspects of the Spartan nation were left to be dealt by the women. Is there any wonder why Spartan women are historically considered the strongest and most capable in dealing with politics, economics, communal affairs, education, and all else but, of course, the military.
