What are the differentces of Sparta and the Athens?
Athens's government ruled as a democracy they were the 1st to ever do this only wealthy male land owners voted (Aristrocrary) Sparta's government ruled as an oligarchy (more then one king) by 2 kings. Athens is built below the acropolis which stands on a hill above all of Athens. Port city to allow trade. Sparta is surrounded by mountains, which makes it difficult for it to be invaded. Athens was a very creative city-state. Gave birth to the philosopher's, democracy, art... they believed in a quality education for boys only. You could go into the army or navy if you wanted to. (if you were a boy) Sparta's boys did not have to work or have an education but train to be warriors from a young age. Athens traded and Sparta didn't. Athens girls weren't regarded as important by the Athenian. Girls could be taught at home (if they had rich parents) girls were not allowed to take part in anything to do with war, business or education. Sparta's girls were to grow up to be the moms of warriors, they took part in all the training because fit ladies produced fit babies, who would fight.

Why might Sparta have decided to spare Athens after Athens was defeated?
Because Athens is weak and cowardly & took their money.For an answer that makes sense, Athens was still a leading city, and favorite of the goddess Athena. To wipe it off the map, as might have been done with a lesser city, was probably considered inadvisable for political and religious reasons. If Athens had won the war, as it nearly did in the first ten years, Sparta might have met the standard fate of a conquered city (death for all men, slavery for all women and children, city destroyed), but the world will never know. They should of killed or destroyed it But then they wouldn't help them when a battle cameThe person who answered the question before this just annoys me with how critical they are being... then again, they are pretty straight forward and, well, truthful.
