Answer 2

Answer:

Sparta was famous for its society of warriors.

At age seven, Spartan boys were turned over by their parents to the state, where they were organized into companies that lived, studied, and trained together.

To toughen them up, even more, Spartan boys were compelled to go barefoot and seldom bathed or used ointments, so that their skin became hard and dry, Plutarch wrote. For clothing, they were given just one cloak to wear year-round, to make them learn to endure heat and cold, and made their own beds from plants that they had to rip out of the ground with their bare hands that they had to rip from river banks.

Spartan youth had to present themselves for regular inspections with no clothes., and boys who didn’t look sufficiently fit were flogged.

To make life even tougher, Spartan boys were fed a meager diet. Xenophon, a philosopher, and historian who lived from the late 400s to mid-300s B.C. noted that one purpose was to keep them slim, which Lycurgus, the founder of the Spartan system, believed would make them grow taller. But the boys’ hunger was also intended to embolden them to steal food from gardens and other places “in order to make the boys more resourceful in getting supplies, and better fighting men,” Xenophon wrote. But to make sure they learned cunning, boys who were caught stealing were whipped, while if they did it without getting caught they were praised.

Athans was famous for its philosophers.

Greek philosophers were "seekers and lovers of wisdom". They studied and analyzed the world around them using logic and reason. Although we often think of philosophy as religion or "the meaning of life", the Greek philosophers were also scientists. Much studied mathematics and physics as well.
