1. Athens is located in the southeastern part of Greece, while Sparta is located in the southern part of Greece.

Explanation:

Athens and Sparta were both ancient city-states. They were part of the Hellenic world, or ancient Greece as it is more often referred to. The two cities were competitors, and more often than not they were in bad relations than in good ones.

The people from neither Athens nor Sparta referred to them as Greeks, but instead they identified themselves with the city-state they belonged to, thus Athenians and Spartans. These two city-states were very different in their political organization and the way the people lived, with Athens being democracy, but also very restrictive to the women, while the Spartans were a militaristic monarchy, and the women had much more freedom.

Both of these ancient city-states were located on what is now Greece. Athens is in fact the capital of modern day Greece.

2. The name of the country, Greece, doesn't appear on the map because there was no such country in existence until the mid 19th century.

Explanation:

Contrary to the popular belief, a country named Greece did not existed in the antique period. The country formed and started using this name only in the mid 19th century. Instead of one country in what is now Greece (without Macedonia and Western Thrace), there were multiple city-states, all of which had their own name and identity.

The city-states didn't had one common ethnic identity, but instead the people identified with the city-state in which  they were living in. A term that was used to somewhat describe all of the city-states was Hellenistic, which was based on the language.

This part of the Balkan Peninsula was actually the only one where there were no people that formed a unified country, usually in the form of kingdom. All of the other groups of people on the Balkan had their own kingdoms, such as:

  • Macedon
  • Paionia
  • Illiria
  • Thrace
  • Dardania
