Similarity

  1. Governance
  2. Military strength
  3. Social Gatherings

Difference

  1. Lifestyle
  2. Political ideology
  3. Feminism

Explanation:

Athens and Sparta were similar in the following respect

  1. Governance- Both of these modern states had a democratic assembly to govern. While Sparta was ruled by two kings, Athens was ruled by Archons elected annually.
  2. Military strengths- Both the states were upholding a formidable bundle of military strength. While Sparta excelled in the land-based army, Athenians were known for their military might.
  3. Social gatherings- Both states encouraged social gatherings and admitted only men in such gatherings.

Athens and Sparta held striking dissimilarities too. Some of them are-

  • Lifestyle- While Athens had a creative lifestyle. This included good education, pursuing arts, humanities or even sciences. People had the option to serve in the army while girls were involved in other pleasure pursuits. While Sparta lifestyle was utterly simple. The prime focus was on obedience and war pursuits. Ongoing slavery freed the young lads from household chores and got them involved in war pursuits. Young boys were taught to be warriors and warriors were eulogised.
  • Political ideology- While Sparta desired to support neighbouring Greek states during the times of need, Athenian were desirous of an increased stake in government in the neighbouring states. This eventually led to the war among all Greek states. However, after winning the war, Sparta allowed the liveliness of Athens to remain in the form of its culture, literature and other soft power.
  • Feminism- Spartan women were prohibited from wearing from any cosmetics, makeup, jewellery. They were judged more on their physical build than on their innate beauty. While Athenian women were famous for their beauty and cosmetics. Makeup was part of an Athenian feminine lifestyle. Physical training was not commonly practised by women.

How was the estates general useful in uniting France under one national identity
Svetradugi [14.3K]

Estates General was the common estate of three estates - First estate (clergy), Second estate (nobility) and Third estate ( commoners). Before the Estates General the three estates were rigidly divided and their interests were antagonistic to each other. The absolute monarchy and economic crises brought them under one common platform i.e Estates General. Here they began to shun the separate estates and fought for a common cause. Estates General paved the way for national assembly and ultimately united France under one national identity.

How did the establishment of Maryland differ from that of the earlier English colonies?
melisa1 [442]
 <span>Although most of the settlers were Protestants, Maryland soon became one of the few regions in the British Empire where Catholics held the highest positions of political authority. Maryland was also one of the key destinations of tens of thousands of British convicts. The Maryland Toleration Act of 1649 was one of the first laws that explicitly dictated religious tolerance, though toleration was limited to Trinitarian Christians. </span><span>
