Ancient Greece

Ancient Greece is the civilization belonging to the period of Greek history lasting from the Archaic period of the 8th to 6th centuries BC to the end of antiquity and beginning of the Early Middle Ages with the rise of the Byzantine era following Justinian I. At the center of this time period is Classical Greece, which flourished during the 5th to 4th centuries BC, at first under Athenian leadership successfully repelling the military threat of Persian invasion. The Athenian Golden Age ends with the defeat of Athens at the hands of Sparta in the Peloponnesian War in 404 BC. Following the conquests of Alexander the Great, Hellenistic civilization flourished from Central Asia to the western end of the Mediterranean Sea.

Classical Greek culture had a powerful influence on the Roman Empire, which carried a version of it to many parts of the Mediterranean region and Europe, for which reason Classical Greece is generally considered to be the seminal culture which provided the foundation of Western civilization.

A. I would compare the economies of the Athenians versus Sparta. Sparta was an militaristic, agrarian, totalitarian state obsessed with isolation. Its economy was based on slave labor to the point that after a twenty year slave revolt, literally all Spartans underwent military training from the age of 7 years old. The obsession with an isolated economy forced them to make their currency relatively worthless to city states. Instead of silver and gold the Spartan used iron within their state and reserved precious metals for outside trade. The Athenians were the polar opposite.
