Question

What was life like for Spartans ?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Tough

Explanation:

Since birth, they would be raised to be soldiers, because of how much Sparta thought that military power was important. When born, they would be examined by a council to see if he was determined and healthy. If not, the baby would be taken away from the parents and would die of exposure. The Spartans were a bit darwinist, or at least i think so, cuz they believed that it would strengthen their society by only letting the strongest survive. (COUGH survival of the fittest) Also, when they are 7 they are separated from their families, moved into military training at a barracks, and when they would turn 20, they became members of the spartan army. (yay ;-;) While Spartan men held power in government affairs, women were also important in society. Because the men were mostly fighting, the women would do all the house and daily stuff. They were also trained for battle, because that way in case Sparta was attacked, they'd still have some form of defense while the men were out in war. The helots, or the slaves, also had a big role in society. While the men and women  were training for war, the helots carried out the everyday work of the city-state. They made the goods, farmed , and conducted the small amount of trade that Sparta had with other city-states.
