   Αν δεν ήταν τόσο εγωιστές τα παλιό ζώα…Συνεχώς, brought to rupture the City-States (the same Athens), instead of the Union all. For this reason disappeared(the Spartans).Αν είχε υπάρξει ένωση , There would be no Roman Empire or Byzantine or Ottoman !We would be a lot , δυνατοί και υπερδύναμη σήμερα…

   I agree with Geo peri recorded history. Definitely have fans around the world. It was absolute war machines of that time. No other people are not trained so hard. Looking for good genes for that reason alone.

   Το βιντεάκι αυτό δεν στέκεται από επιστημονική άποψη…..δεν έχω χρόνο τώρα να αναλύσω ένα πρός ένα τα 10 βάρβαρα στοιχεία που περιγράφει…. A Publisher will tell you, that the Spartan culture had fans around the course of human history such as Plutarch and many Romans.

     What scientific view?history is not a science, and these are documented in many authoritative books of historical and non-Spartans. Nobody said that it was admirable their culture, just train them was indeed so barbaric and had one of the best armies in history.
