Cool, plus Sparta was more awesome when it came to women. They were expected to be as physically fit as men, and divorce was okay. They got their names on their gravestones if they died in childbirth. Plus, they were given these little knives so if their husbands tried to beat them they could cut up their faces so everyone would know he abused them and would/could publicly shame them. While I like Athens' art and brains, this info makes Sparta awesome.
This info was taken from part of a post from somewhere else that was put on pintrest, it's got more info if you're interested, but some of the descriptions are a little "creative". If you look for Gallyo Tavcor on pintrest, it's in the page "Things I Love". That's my page, you'll find it there with other random stuff and Disney/HP/Percy Jackson/other books/Marvel/etc geeky stuff.
