<u>The Spartans constituted a highly militarized society with a rigid hierarchy and discipline to maintain social order.</u> The organization of the members of society into social groups formed the social order of Sparta, and discipline maintained by force of arms prevented people from attempting to alter this order.
<u>The hilotas</u> were servants belonging to the state. They worked the land they inhabited and had to pay taxes to the state, and they were kept under domination by force and terror.
<u>The periecos</u> were free people who lived in the outskirts of the cities and worked in agriculture, but also worked craft and commercial work, paying taxes to the state.

They disregarded the crafts and agriculture, and the men devoted themselves entirely to military activities and to state administration. They were the only ones who had the rights of citizenship and had political participation.
