In Sparta, the boys were taken from their homes and forced to live in a military school and learn to fight, steal, and murder helots then served in the army until they were 60 while the girls learned to wrestle and defend the city while the men were away at battle. In today's American society, all children are required to get an education in math, science, English, and history. They are not taken from their homes and have a choice of whether or not they want to enter the army.

Hello. You did not post the announcements that the question refers to, but I can help you, since the announcements that reflected European views at the time of imperialism, generally displayed obvious ideas about the purity and superiority of the white man and the idea that colonies are dirty places without civilization.
The idea of purity and superiority is related to the idea of the "white man's burden", which was a concept that stated that it was a duty (given by God) to Europeans to "clean up", take Christianity and dominate regions with inferior people , in this case, non-white people who lived in other countries, who were considered unclean and therefore needed to be purified by whites.
In this way, Europeans used a strong racist bias to dominate and enslave peoples of other ethnicities, promoting imperialism while claiming that this was the role that God had assigned to whites in this world.

Hope this helps! :)
