One of Athens biggest rivals was Sparta.
Sparta
The city-states of Athens and Sparta joined forces along with the other southern Greek city-states to defeat the Persian invasion in 480-479 BCE, however they were not enemies - they were allies before and after the Persian invasion. Sparta had offered support to Athens against the Persian attack on Athens a decade before that, and Athens supported the Spartans when Messenia revolted against Spartan rule twenty years after the Persian invasion. Not exactly enemies. They became enemies when Athens set out to dominate the Greek world, resulting in the Spartan-led Peloponnesian League and Athens and its new empire clashed in a destructive Peloponnesian War 431-404 BCE. Athens lost, was stripped of its empire and became a second rate power.
Sparta because they did not have as much freedom as Athens.
Sparta was stronger because they trained for the military more than Athens.
